Casamania - Opus Incertum Shelf

A nice Roman wall (Opus incertum) didn't have to pulled with a ruler, so that everything looked very ordinary and neat – it should be robust and hold. And because the Roman wasn't only known for brick buildings, an irregular facade was created.

At a modern book shelf they look after the right angle and clear edges very squeamishly. That this isn't the only practicable way, proves the book shelf Opus Incertum by Casamania.

The single sheds create an irregular structur in which unconventionally books and other things can be stored.+

Formed out of foamed polyethylene, does it fulfil the Roman demands on the robustness. It can be stacked and put next to each other, just how you like it. And as room devider, or to stay with the Romans: "Room-Limes“, Opus Incertum adds its part to a modern, stylish house.

Responsable for the Roman wall is the young American, in Italy working designer Sean Yoo - thruthful multicultural!

Opus Incertum is also available in further colours.
