Foil Bonaldo Bookcase, designed by Maurizio and Silvia Varsi, a modular wall-mounted bookcase featuring slender Metal Plus uprights and matching painted aluminium shelves. Numerous compositions can be created by combining the different uprights with 177 and 265 cm shelves.
The Foil Bonaldo Bookcase, designed by Maurizio and Silvia Varsi, takes its name from the world of sailing boats that appear to fly across the water at high speed. This sense of lightness is reflected in an intersection of slender metal and aluminium elements. Although structurally solid, the materials are used to create a visually light framework that draws attention to the books and objects displayed on it.
Foil is a modular wall-mounted bookcase. The system uses Metal Plus uprights in bronze or lead, matching Plus painted aluminium shelves and coordinated wall brackets. Shelves are available in 177 and 265 cm lengths. The final configuration is determined by the number, position and type of components selected; before an order is placed, Bonaldo requires a drawing of the proposed composition so that structural feasibility and the required components can be checked.
