A bookcase with a minimalist design, designed by Johannes Sorth and manufactured by Nexø Møbelfabrik in Denmark in the 1960s. What makes it unique is, above all, its proportions: 182 cm tall and just 28 cm deep—a slender design that makes the most of vertical space, offering ample surface area for books, objects, and collections without overwhelming the wall. Made entirely of teak, it features a regular series of shelves that span the entire width of the cabinet. The wood grain remains the focal point even on the bottoms of the compartments, creating a visual continuity that gives the structure a richer, more textured look while maintaining an extremely clean design. The raised base contributes to the piece's overall lightness and defines a silhouette typical of Danish design of that period, in which function is achieved with a minimal use of decorative elements. Its compact depth makes it ideal even for spaces where room is limited—from the living room to the home office, and even a reading nook. One of the most interesting features of Sorth's collection for Nexø is precisely the variety of configurations developed around a single design concept: bookcases, storage units, and versions with a writing desk all share a consistent design language based on functionality, modularity, and the quality of the teak craftsmanship.
