Jean Nouvel Compact Bookcase

June 20, 2009 by

Distinctive, eye-catching and attractive- these are probably the nouns you would use to describe the Jean Nouvel Compact Bookcase. Why is it all that glorious? Well, one look at it will tell you that this bookcase isn’t your ordinary wooden, four column shelving case that is so typical and boring and often seen in our grandfather’s study. This new generation bookcase is for the bold, the daring and the young.

The Jean Nouvel bookcase is for those with an eccentric heart, a flair for different designs and a zest for the queer. This bookcase gives you all the reason more to buy books or just about anything to store in its revolving bookcase/container that comes with stackable bonded transparent or hand-painted grey glass cubes, with methacrylate partitions.

The bookcase stands at an impressive sight of 19mm thick glass, with nylon castor wheels and it can support a total weight of up to 400 Kg. It comes in several versions of 10 mm thick glass cube and stand in 19 mm thick glass with a surface finish of either transparent or hand-painted in grey. Jean Nouvel is the brilliant designer of this aesthetic bookcase with strong architectures. A founding member of Mars 1976 and Syndicat de l’Architecture, Jean holds the award for the prestigious Aga Khan Awards for Architecture and the Pritzker Price.

The design of the bookcase combines art with minimalism and eccentrics. Compliment your living room furniture or study room furniture with this colorful piece that is sure to light up any room, be the center of attraction and give you a sense of style. This bookcase is ideal for small apartments as it not only gives your adequate space, it also requires minimal space to be located in and the best part is, it gives out the illusion of space and it gives that glowing effect and magnifies the room to greater lengths.
