The Gradient Background Bookshelf: A Bohemian Twist for Special Interiors
April 25, 2014
Designer Jordi Lopez from Aguilo Kutarq studio shared the Gradient Bookshelf with us, an original shelving unit fit for minimalist contemporary spaces with a bohemian twist. It is interesting how this simple furniture piece communicates with its environment, adding an intriguing ethereal feel.
The displayed ombre effects reminds us a bit of a project we featured on HomeUncle a while back, entitled Plissee Sideboard and envisioned by Anne Boenisch.
The bookcase is the result of combining an innovative structure with common materials and a very straightforward assembly system. Natural plywood and steel frames work great together and are linked by hidden screws, giving this aspect of lightness; the frames look like they are floating.
The product comes flat packed and can be assembled in a few minutes. Its shelves are made from steel frames and poplar plywood boards. Each leg is a flat piece of phenolic plywood that is bent during the assembly of the components. [Photos and information provided via e-mail by Kutarq studio]
