Modular wall library by Ico Parisi for MIM Rome, 1960s
Two independent modules with black painted iron uprights and adjustable screw feet, live edge solid walnut shelves. Rack system that allows height adjustment of the floors. Sober and functional design, a direct expression of Italian rationalism applied to home furnishings. Piece signed by one of the protagonists of post-war Italian design. The black walnut-iron combination has remained an aesthetic reference to this day — it works in a contemporary loft exactly as in an interior years ’60. Italian design when it was still a promise kept.
