Pensile Bookshelf
Price € 1.000,00
From the creative genius of Achille Castiglioni and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni was born the bookshelf Pensile, an elegant piece of furniture for the home that goes well with contemporary needs of taste and simplicity. Karakter designed it for the first time in 1957 and has continued to perfect it ever since, transforming it into the authentic design icon it is today. The peculiar structure of this furniture consists of shelves linked together by wires anchored to a single point of the wall to give the impression of having to do with a painting, wall furniture and much more. However, the elegance of this object is unmistakable, ideal for those looking for something unique.

Designed by
Achille Castiglioni
Achille Castiglioni (1918-2002) was one of the most important and famous masters of Italian design of the twentieth century. With a playful and curious temperament, he has also brought these characteristics into his creations, always full of brilliant intuitions resulting from a strong ability to observe the behavior of people and their relationship with objects. Son of the sculptor Giannino Castiglioni, he works for the entire first part of his career alongside his brother Pier Giacomo (1913-1968), with whom he co-signs all his creations until the latter's death in 1968. Among his associations more fortunate are those with Flos, a company with which he collaborates since the foundation and with which he revolutionizes the concept of domestic lighting. He works also with Zanotta, who supportes him in his most daring experiments, with De Padova, with whom he carries out many projects in recent years of his life, and with Alessi. He has won the Compasso d'Oro eight times.Read more
