LOAD-IT By Porro
Designer: Wolfgang Tolk
Manufacture year: 1995
Type: Wall-mounted sectional bookcase
Designed by Wolfgang Tolk in 1995 and featuring protruding shelves that cut through the space, the Load-it bookshelving system is a Porro classic that has maintained its strong iconic value over the years, progressively acquiring new functions and design options. Originally developed as an all-white bookcase that disappears into the wall, creating the effect of a succession of books suspended in the air, it has changed its look over the years, adding new materials and finishes without losing the recognisability and expressive power of a design that is at the same time simple and disruptive. Designing spaces through clear and elegant signs, that are defined by the rigour of the lines, the value of the finishes and the quality of design: the Load-it bookcase with steel shelves and wall panels in natural or black-stained canneté, featuring horizontal stripes alongside vertical ones, creates a fully-fledged boiserie system on the wall, a textured picture that can reach down to the floor, covering the space with a second functional skin. Ideal for creating equipped walls and boiserie systems, it has acquired new functions over time thanks to the combination with Modern cabinets: home-working solutions and TV compositions, which further expand the range of possible compositions and uses of this sleek bookshelving system, enhancing creativity and meeting the functional needs of the living area.
