LIBRA SHELF
Design Martinelli / Venezia, 2017
A minimalist shape with a strong aesthetic, Libra plays with the concept of balance, displacing the observer. “The
metal support wraps the convex base of the wood, deforming and creating a material illusion: at first impression, it
resembles a leather band. The image that inspired the project is, in fact, the traditional book-holder leather belt used by
our grandparents, before the advent of the folders. Made of solid oak and supported by a wrought iron ribbon. A hidden
metal plate welded to the support structure, makes the shelf stable and durable.
