Baleri Italia Mac Gee Bookshelf in Metallic Silver Steel by Philippe Starck
By Philippe Starck, Baleri Italia
Located in Milano, Lombardia
Mac Gee is the essence of a bookshelf. Philippe Starck cleaned and cleaned the structure to only keep the square root, the skeleton of a bookshelf. Therefore avoiding styles, the timeless Mac Gee has lived for decades, as if simply leaned against the wall, almost as an object trouvé that matches every interiors and transcends trends.
Modular bookshelves in steel sheet with epoxy finish in semi-glossy metallic silver. A central upright structure supports five shelves of decreasing depths.
Philippe Starck, world famous creator with multifaceted inventiveness, is always focused on the essential, his vision: that creation, whatever form it takes, must improve the lives of as many people as possible. By employing his prolific work across all domains, from everyday products (furniture, a citrus-squeezer, electric bikes, an individual wind turbine), to architecture (hotels, restaurants that aspire to be stimulating places) and naval and spatial
engineering (mega yachts, space habitation module), he continually pushes the boundaries and requirements of design, becoming one of the most visionary and renowned creators of the international contemporary scene. In 1984 and 1985, Philippe Starck collaborated with Baleri to create five pieces of furniture: Café Chair, Francesca Spanish, Richard III, Président M...

Franco Albini Bookcase; a Masterpiece of Italian Craftsmanship and Design
By Cassina, Franco Albini
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
Introducing the remarkable Veliero Bookcase, designed by the renowned Franco Albini in 1940 and relaunched by Cassina in Italy between 2011 and 2019. This exceptional wooden bookcase challenges the laws of physics, showcasing Cassina's unparalleled design and construction capabilities while preserving the minimal, linear aesthetics of the original design. A testament to the designer's ability to create innovative and functional furniture pieces, the Veliero Bookcase appears to defy gravity, giving the impression that the books and objects placed on it are floating in mid-air.
The Veliero bookcase is a contemporary interpretation of the 1940 one-of-a-kind piece that Albini created for his own Milan home. With its striking, experimental design, this modern masterpiece has earned its status as a work of art, as magical and captivating today as it was when first introduced.

Charles X
Charles Philippe; 9 October 1757 – 6 November 1836, was known for most of his life as the Count of Artois before he reigned as King of France from 16 September 1824 until 2 August 1830.
