Jack
Designed by Michael Anastassiades for B&B Italia, the Jack bookcase wall system started as a design rod stacking exercise for Michael and evolved into an effortless and optimum structure for a diverse range of interiors.
With Geometric and plain lines, the bookcase can fit any space. Beautifully attracting a curious eye to the fine precision of its construction. The piece is in different finishes, black, white, or with wooden finished shelves.
Additionally, The Jack wall system is a highly technical structure that assembles into a coherent and modern furniture piece. The system can be against a wall or in the middle of a room to act as a space divider.
Parallel Structure
Parallel Structure is an example of elemental design combined with a simple yet highly detailed structure and material choice. Again the attention is to the fine detail of the joinery and junction of the different elements of the Parallel Structure table.
The wood, glass, and aluminum create at the same time a monolithic and familiar piece. While maintaining genuine architectural, structural, and design characteristics.
