Fusto Bookshelf I, winner of the ADA2020, designed by Studio Irvine for Forma&Cemento, is part of the Fusto Collection - Concrete Domesti Landscape. A collection of modular system in ultra high performing cement mortar. UHPC tabletop and base colored in the mixture and sandblasted. Each item is handmande and treated and it's protected with water repellent products to reduce the absorption of oily substances and to minimise the making of stains.
Combining the hard quality of this material with light and clean lines of architectural inspiration, it is composed of four column-shaped legs of different sizes, supporting three shelves, also boasting different lengths. This piece is available in eight different hues.
Fusto is the series that introduces the new design approach. As in classical architecture, Fusto is the column that holds tables, consoles, bookcases and pedestals. Volumes and proportions are integrated in a timeless geometry, enriched with facets that make the colour vibrate in a game of lights and shadows.
Fusto is eternal architecture.
