Sitting and living in the middle of your favourite books is like sitting in the middle of yourself, of your mind, every book you read becomes part of you and of who you are. From the visual concept of this feeling was born the very first drawing of the Bibliochaise in 1998. Presented in 2006 at Pitti Living in Zona Tortona during the Fuorisalone. Since then it has entered some of the most beautiful houses in the world.
The Bibliochaise, which contains five linear metres of books, is mounted on wheels and is manufactured in 3 different finishes, in any colour one wishes it; also for the leather cushions, there is a wide range of colours to choose from.
An advertising duo turn into one of the most creative design studio, Alisée Matta and Giovanni Gennari, funded Nobody&co in 2005. The brand combines the excellence of the Made In Italy with an innovative and playful approach, with the ability of transcending design conventions without losing its function.
“Problems are always the best inspirations. Eighteen years ago we lived in a tiny flat full of books but with nowhere to sit. That same year we drew the first Bibliochaise: a cube to sit in with slots all around to put books in.”
