Transistor Shelving Unit
The Transistor wall shelving system by Barberini & Gunnell for Tonelli Design links glass shelves with cylindrical aluminum fittings.
Different shelf shapes and lengths create branching compositions for books and display objects. Clear or extra-clear glass keeps the arrangement visually open, while the exposed metal joints mark the connections across the wall.
Every detail, considered.
