The Infinito Bookcase is an iconic furnishing element which has been inserted with full rights in the Cassina collection I Maestri. It is an extremely flexible bookcase, realizable in a nearly endless range of possibilities and placeable against the wall, in the middle of a room or as a partition element. Franco Albini created this model between 1956 and 1957, conceiving it as a structure delimited by solid wood uprights, multiple shelves and storage units with hinged or flap doors. Years later, Cassina has proposed it again on the market with different solutions according to the choice of the structures and of the components. The key point of Infinito is the opportunity to avoid the use of any wall anchorage to be able to use it on both sides according to your taste. The adjustable uprights are pressure fixed between floor and ceiling, whereas a drilling system allows you to insert shelves and storage units at different heights.

Founded in 1927 by the brothers Cesare and Umberto in the heart of Brianza furniture, Cassina is one of the long-lived Made in Italy industrial design companies. From the early ‘30s, Cassina brothers identified the strong demand for home furnishings and interpreted in a far-sighted way the renewed taste of the new emerging classes. From this intuition, Cassina started a real revolution in the indoor furnishings design. Since then, the company has been pursuing a path of research and innovation, involving prestigious designers and architects in the study of new furnishings models. In the last few years the collaboration with Gio Ponti has begun. Thanks to this partnership were born the 646 chair, known as Leggera, and the subsequent model 699 or Superleggera.Read more
Designed by
Franco Albini
Franco Albini (1905-1977) was one of the great masters of Italian Rationalism, both in the field of design and architecture. Since the 1930s he distinguished himself as one of the leading elements of the group of young architects who, gathered around the Casabella magazine, advocated the peculiar Italian interpretation of the Modern Movement and the Bauhaus that were forever changing European and world architecture, and which took the name of Rationalism in Italy. Putting functional values at the center, his creations did not try to hide the constructive elements, but rather emphasized them and put them in the foreground. After the war he began to collaborate with Franca Helg and intensified his theoretical and teaching activity, centered on the search for a synthesis between artisan tradition and industrial practice. As a designer he has worked with various realities such as Cassina, Arflex, Poggi and Bonacina; his creations are also re-edited by brands such as Knoll and Nemo. Among the major legacies of his work as an architect are the planning of Line 1 of the Milan Metro, in collaboration with Bob Noorda for the graphics, and the Rinascente building in Rome. Most of his post-war projects were co-signed with Franca Helg (1920-1989), who will carry on the activity of Studio Albini even after the death of its founder.Read more
