Designed by Studio Nucleo (Piergiorgio Robino and Stefania Fersin) for Qeeboo, the Primitive bookcase is the industrialized re-edition of one of the most iconic and powerful artistic and conceptual projects in contemporary design. Originally conceived as a limited-edition work, Primitive is now re-released by Qeeboo in an accessible version made of recyclable polyethylene using rotational molding. Based on the concept of the primary geometric figure and the deconstruction of elementary forms, this furnishing sculpture is conceived as a single 240 cm long module, capable of standing alone or combining with a second element to create an even larger and more dramatic bookcase. A signature piece entirely Made in Italy that evokes the paradox between cubism, abstract art, and primordial geometric spontaneity.
