An artist's creativity combined with a great company’s technology results in to a bookcase design of industrial scale that can rightfully be considered the world’s most daring and revolutionary: Bookworm, the flexible bookshelf.

  A careful analysis of extrusion technology has allowed the creation of a curvy bookcase which assumes any desired shape, without compromising toughness and functionality.  Unlimited shapes can be formed, limited only by personal creativity.  Available in three different lengths, Bookworm is distinguished by a set of bookends. This bookcase combines flexibility and strength and can take a load of about 10 kg on each level.
