bookworm bookshelf short
Design Ron Arad, 1994
Batch-dyed pvc
Made in Italy by Kartell
The creativity of an artist, combined with the technology of a great company, gives life to a project for a bookcase made on an industrial scale that can rightfully be considered the most daring and revolutionary in the world: Bookworm, the flexible bookcase. A careful analysis of extrusion technology has enabled a sinuous bookcase to be created, taking on the desired form, without this jeopardising its toughness and functionality. Available in three different lengths, Bookworm combines flexibility and high resistance, allowing a load of around 20lbs. for each support.

Ron Arad
In 1981 Ron scoured a scrapyard and combined a car seat with structural tubing to create the postmodern Rover Chair, whose popularity significantly launched his career. Ron Arad’s unique design style would continue to use unorthodox combinations of materials and concepts.
The Kartell brand comes alive through design enthusiasm which can be appreciated by observing Kartell products. Expressing design languages in collaboration with talented designers is Kartell's super power.
