"I have always desired to do the opposite. Not because I have an anarchic behavior, but because I think the fundamental basis of design consists in thinking the opposite." - Achille Castiglioni
Originally designed in 1957, perfected over the years, and produced by Bernini in 1966. Seeking to pare down the structure of a bookcase to the absolute minimum, Castiglioni decided to hang the shelves on knots in two cords fixed to a single point on the wall. 50 years after it was launched it is still relevant, elegant, and very Castiglioni.
