Bookcase Model 795 by Carlo Scarpa for Bernini, Italy, 1980, Walnut and Steel

The height is adjustable from 290 to 300 cm, emphasizing Scarpa’s fascination with precision mechanics and structural balance. Although conceived decades earlier, this bookcase anticipates the modular and architectural systems that would later define postwar Italian design, such as Franco Albini’s LB7...
