About the Item

Large “Continua” Modular Wall Unit / Bookcase by Hannes Wettstein for Pallucco Striking large-scale modular wall unit from the renowned Continua series, designed by Hannes Wettstein for Pallucco. This expansive composition is characterized by a strong architectural presence and a refined, minimalist design language, making it ideal for large interiors, loft spaces, or statement walls. The system features a continuous rhythm of vertical supports and horizontal shelves, creating a sense of visual continuity that defines the Continua program. The composition is particularly wide and is enhanced by two integrated cabinets, offering discreet concealed storage while maintaining the clean, linear aesthetic of the overall structure. Thanks to its fully modular construction, the arrangement of shelves and cabinets can be reconfigured and adapted to different spaces and functional needs, allowing for a high degree of flexibility while preserving the original design integrity. Conceived as a versatile and architectural system, this wall unit functions as a bookcase, display library, or multifunctional storage solution. It reflects Hannes Wettstein’s rational yet elegant approach to design and Pallucco’s commitment to high-quality contemporary Italian furniture.
