Sundial Bookcase
Overview
Design by Nendo, 2010.
Made in Italy by Kartell.
The Sundial Bookcase features a glossy white or black frame and four shelves with opaline dividers set at various angles that appear to be in constant motion, simulating the evolving shadows cast by a sundial.
Versatile and light, Sundial can be set against a wall or used as a room divider without overwhelming the space. The detail in the separators set at different angles arouses curiosity, perhaps as much as the shelves' contents.
