Description
Spinnaker Bookcase – Cattelan Italia (Design: Tosca Design, 2020)
The Spinnaker bookcase makes an incisive, sculptural statement, with its name inspired by the billowing sails that dominate the horizon. Designed for either wall or ceiling fixing, this modern metal bookcase can serve as a striking freestanding decorative column or an inventive wall feature. The lacquered steel structure, available in black (GFM73) or titanium (GFM11), is paired with premium wood-veneered shelves—Noce Canaletto (NC) or open-pore black Elm (OLM73)—and complementary metallic steel details. The interplay between organic wood grain and metallic finishes brings dynamic flair to living rooms, offices, bedrooms, or elegant waiting areas.
Spinnaker is constructed from embossed steel varnished with epoxy powders. Shelves are made from MDF with high-quality wood veneer, and all finishes can be selected from the Cattelan Italia sample card. Exclusively for indoor use, Spinnaker embodies Italian craftsmanship and modular functionality.
