The Sapiens Bookcase is a legendary contemporary space-saving idea. Instead of committing to an over-extension of lateral space, why not just use limited vertical space, and make it elegant? That's the concept behind this book-loving Sapiens bookshelf.
Designed by Bruno Rainaldi, the Sapiens Bookcase is constructed of a steel tube column and steel sheet shelves. Clean and minimal, a Sapiens Bookcase is a great contemporary example of form following function. We recommend a 2.5 kg (5.5 pounds) weight capacity per shelf. (The base is a solid piece of steel and can also hold books.)
