Square Bookshelves by Nendo


click images to enlarge

I love these new bookshelves designed by Nendo. They’re the latest addition to their dancing squares collection – an investigation into the possibilities of square planes – which they released earlier this year. Below are 2 different arrangements but the shelves can be infinitely customized to adhere to the orientation of almost any room, providing a dynamic visual effect. The only thing that’s missing are some books!

“one part of the bookshelf is frozen in a tumbling cascade, creating variety in the way books can be stacked.” – nendo

I like the concept! These basic building blocks can be assembled into interesting shelving arrangements according to our needs. Very flexible!
