Story
A sculpture-bookcase of detached, tangent squares
Victor Vasilev designed Bukva in 2011. Squared elements, detached from one another yet tangent, make up a series that reads as a sculpture-bookcase. A vertical module takes 5 panels that differ in size and depth.
Steel frame and aluminium covers
Square-section tubular steel of 12x12 mm forms the supporting frame, and the frontal panel is cut from 3 mm steel plate. Aluminium plate 10/10 makes the vertical and horizontal covers. The same three finishes are offered for structure and covers, and the modules hang straight on the wall via the plates supplied with them.
