Sendai Crystal is a watermark fascinated by the elegance floating shelf. The decor is a re-design of the famous library of Toyo Ito, who looks like a sculpture. The original 2004 was the result of collaboration between Ito and the Italian furniture brand Horm. Made of glass, solid alder and walnut, the designer tablet combines dynamic and calm, flexibility and robustness.
Shelf design can be integrated into different devices
The new version of the tablet looks lighter and more open – instead of wood are 6 glass shelves. Thus, the designer grid gets a clear visual lightness, reminiscent of bamboo stems that grow to the sky. 25 segments of alder and walnut oiled are positioned in different angles and create an interesting visual texture. A base in black lacquered MDF is equipped with adjustable feet and shows the structure of lightness.
