Story

A configurable five-shelf unit

Swedese presents Libri as a bookcase that its owner can furnish, build and change, becoming part of the design process. The five-shelf model reviewed here is the 227 cm version shown on the official product sheet.

One unit or several

A single Libri can lean against a wall. The product page also describes repeated units filling a wall or standing together as a room divider. Adjustable feet allow the shelf to be levelled on uneven floors.
