Modular wall system "Urio" by Ico and Luisa Parisi for MiM 1957, two-module bookcase, Italy 1960s

Modular "Urio" bookcase designed in 1957 by Ico and Luisa Parisi for M.I.M. Rome. The bookcase consists of two modules that also include back panels, which were sold as optional accessories; in fact, they were additional elements that are now rarely available. The bookcase can be assembled in different ways, with or without the backs. If the backs are excluded, the supporting metal structures will be visible. You can also play with the placement of individual elements, deciding their location according to your needs. Notably, the different finishing colors are deliberately alternated, contrasting the different types of wood. In the dark finishes, the sides are light-colored to create a visual link between the shades. The bookcase has been fully finished and polished, ready for display. Dimensions: H. 220 cm - W. 197 cm - D. 46 cm (Each module is approximately 1 meter).
