Sendai Bookcase

The Sendai Bookcase is a masterful creation by renowned architect Toyo Ito, inspired by the dynamic design of the Sendai Media Centre in Japan. This sculptural piece embodies movement and flexibility, translating the energy of the original structure into a functional yet artistic bookcase. Rooted in oriental philosophy, the Sendai merges simplicity with a profound sense of elegance, making it a standout feature in any interior.

Featuring six aluminium veneered shelves, the Sendai Bookcase is connected by uniquely turned solid wood elements. Each wooden connector varies in inclination and section, creating a fluid and rhythmic design that appears almost in motion. The interplay between the sleek aluminium shelves and the natural warmth of the wood adds depth and sophistication to the overall aesthetic.

A silent yet captivating design, the Sendai Bookcase reflects Toyo Ito’s philosophy of blending form with function. Perfect for modern and minimalist interiors, it offers a distinctive way to display books, art, or decorative items. This exquisite piece is a testament to the harmony between architecture and furniture design, bringing a touch of artistic refinement to any space.
