Senday Bookcase

Sendai is the bookcase designed by Toyo Ito for Horm.it.

Movement and flexibility summarize the emotional power of Toyo Ito, who in this sculpture-bookcase captures the design essence of Sendai’s media centre (Japan), which he designed and used as inspiration. This leap in scale consists of six light MDF shelves  veneered with polished aluminium connected through turned elements made from solid Alder and Walnut treated with oil, all different from each other in inclination and section. Sendai is definitely a piece of furniture of silent albeit captivating design, which reflects the typical oriental philosophy of the great architect.
