Pamono Modular Bookcase in American Walnut by Franco Albini for Cassina> Storage

Franco Albini Modular Bookcase Infinito, American Walnut For Cassina Designed between 1956 and 1957 by Franco Albini and Franca Helg, Infinito is an elegant versatile double-sided bookcase that can be used as a dividing wall; outwardly simple, it is extremely complex. The modular support structure for this wood bookcase was designed to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the various components. ADJUSTABLE UPRIGHTS Solid ash or walnut. FINISHES Natural or black stained ash, American walnut. ANCHOR ELEMENTS Ceiling and floor in steel. An extremely flexible bookcase, with myriad modular options, suited to being against a wall or as a room partition. Franco Albini designed this piece between 1956 and 1957 using a solid wood frame, with several shelves, as well as storage units that can be fitted with standard or drop-down doors. Since 2008, applying industrial manufacturing processes, Cassina has launched a number of frame and component options that help to maximise the potential of this piece, to the infinite, as its name implies. Fully free-standing, Infinito can be used from either side, both as a bookcase or display unit for objects of various kinds. The verticals are floor-to-ceiling and height- adjustable, while the shelves and storage units can also be set at various heights.
