Designed by Achille and Pier Giacomo CastiglioniRead Bio
The Libreria Pensile Shelf was originally designed in 1957 by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, the Italian brothers famed for their pioneering modernist designs. While creating Libreria, they pared down the structure of a bookcase into its essential elements by opting to suspend the shelves from slim cords. The result is an elegant and minimal piece of furniture that remains relevant today.
