SCROLL TO DISCOVER
sendai bookcase
A furnishing accessory with a silent but attractive design. The structure of sendai encapsulates the design essence of the media library in Sendai, Japan, consisting of six reflective aluminium shelves joined by solid wood lathes that are all different from each other in terms of inclination and sections.
movement and flexibility
A piece of furniture that strikes and disrupts any concept of design, a true work of art. The common elements are the irregular columns, which create the illusion of extreme lightness and fragility. The flexibility and movement of the uprights contrast with shelves with a strong visual impact.
sendai
crystal
Sendai consists of six shelves, its structure is made of solid alder wood and Canaletto walnut, with wooden shelves covered in polished aluminium. The Crystal version introduces tempered glass for the shelves. This choice of design allows light to reflect, creating a play of movement and enhancing the geometry and volumes of the cabinet.
Toyo Ito
Toyo Ito’s collaboration with Horm dates back to 2003, but it is undoubtedly destined to be remembered for many years to come, thanks to his innovative approach to design that makes him one the world's most influential architects of our time.
His commitment to exploring new forms, and his poetic interpretation of natural archetypes, led to the birth of Sendai.
