Riva 1920 Bookcases<Bookshelf 6-Shelf Briccola Bookcase by David Chipperfield

Multifunctionality and linearity both define this imposing bookcase, fashioned of wax-finished briccola, the same wood used to craft the wooden poles dotting the Venetian lagoon. Equipped with fifteen blocks playing a crucial structural function, it also counts six long shelves, the central one – larger in size – protrudes from the rest and offers itself as an incorporated writing desk.
