JAZZ By Lapalma
Collection: JAZZ
Designer: Giuseppe Bavuso
Manufacture year: 2022
Type: Open aluminium and wood bookcase
A new product category has been added to the impressive Lapalma catalogue, the Jazz bookcase designed by Giuseppe Bavuso, the brand's new artistic director. It’s called JAZZ and like the musical genre from which it draws inspiration, where improvisation is always linked to structure, it conceals precise harmony behind apparent disorder. Its aesthetic variability and the sensation of a fragile equilibrium contrasts with the flawless structural solidity of the bookcase in terms of engineering. A series of cylindrical elements, resting on a 38 cm wide base, appear to rise spontaneously from the shelf, spreading like tree branches in opposite and unexpected directions until they disappear and join the top shelf to form a kind of bench. The cylindrical elements act as buttresses between them, bringing firm stability to the ensemble. The benches can be stacked to create a modular aluminium bookcase, with mdf shelves, which can be freely extended in height to meet the most diverse design requirements of architects and interior designers. Following the principles of a correct approach to design in the name of sustainability, JAZZ is composed of only three elements: uprights in die-cast aluminium and shelves in MDF, assembled together with concealed stainless steel joints; all components that can be easily disassembled and totally recyclable with a view to a circular economy. Designed to be placed as required in the middle of a room, with feet that can be fixed to the floor, where it can be used as an accessorised partition to separate spaces without dividing them, JAZZ brings elegance and variety, also in a more classic wall-mounted position. Like a large aluminium tree, with a line enhanced by a monochrome coating (white, black or in colours proposed by Lapalma), this unique bookcase is ideal for housing corners of greenery, as well as books and various furnishing objects.
