Description
Continua is a modular library system that can be freely assembled by following only a few rules.
The system consists of rectangular modules made of plywood and a vertical grid of aluminum bars.
It was born as a bookcase, but thanks to its many configurations, Continua can be used to organize, divide or even create a room within a room. Its innovative shape can follow curved lines, making it particularly suitable for furnishing offices and stores, as well as display spaces that are frequently reorganized.
We want to think that the use of this furniture can evolve over time: for example, from a bookshelf to a green wall-useful in case the digital revolution turns all our books into bits-and so we are implementing Continua with an integrated low tec irrigation system that distributes water into specially designed flower pots.
The Continua system was awarded the BIG SEE Design Award 2024 in the HOM category.
