CABINET DE CURIOSITE'
Categorie: FURNITURE AND COMPLEMENTS
"This bookcase is a tribute to my Parisian
grandfather", explains the designer, Fabrice Berrux.
"There was one room in his apartment which
fascinated me more than any other. It was the room
he occupied every evening until late at night: his
office, or better, his room of wonders, his 'cabinet
de curiosité'. A place for thinking, for creating, for
recalling memories, packed with books, paintings,
masks, sculptures, and a thousand other 'essential'
objects." (Fabrice Berrux)
Fifteen years later, these memories have become a
bookcase devised like a modular architectural feature. Cabinet de Curiosité consists of six different
modules, which can be mixed and matched freely to achieve the desired configuration. Every module
consists of a façade and a variable number of windows and niches intended to house, organise and
highlight books, ornaments and all sorts of objects.
