Bookchair
Inspired by the relationship between space and the human body, Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto created Bookchair for the Italian line Alias. An object within an object, the compact shelving unit incorporates a chair that can be extracted. The bookcase is made of lacquered MDF. The seat is in the same finish and material.
