Cobalt blue shelf 520 cm Bookworm - Kartell

A jewel of ingenuity and technology, Bookworm is a cult bookcase that revolutionised the world of design… This flexible bookcase gives free rein to everyone's imagination and creativity: it bends and curves to suit your every whim and need! Conceived in 1994 by the great Israeli architect and designer Ron Arad, Bookworm dresses walls with a sublime undulating line, to the delight of design lovers and bookworms alike.

Made by the Italian manufacturer Kartell, this modular shelf is crafted from flexible PVC in a cobalt blue colour. Its remarkable flexibility and enhanced strength allow each support to hold close to 10 kg, a real luxury for collectors of all kinds. This model comes with 7 book ends to fix on either side of this 3.20 m long shelf. A little snail or a serpentine shape, Bookworm adds a personalised and whimsical touch to any interior!

The avant-garde Bookworm bookcase finds its place in every room of the house, fitting beautifully on the walls of a child's bedroom or a large, welcoming living room. Picture its sinuous curves above a colourful bench in the lounge area, or weaving mischievously between the frames and wall shelves of a spacious office.

The Bookworm bookcase comes in three different lengths (320 cm, 520 cm, 820 cm) and in a multitude of colours; other versions are available at The Cool Republic.
