Smart book storage by Postfossil

The interplay of thickness of these materials and of profile gives the frame such universal structure. The shadows created through the powder-coated metal frame, the colour of the wood (cherry or oak) and the combination of the two materials award Sgabello its own elegance. Sgabello is designed by Postfossil as a simple furniture object that has three very different ways to use. First of all it’s a quite stylish chair. Although thanks to its structure it can become a side table with a book storage space. It’s made of sheet metal and solid wood that are merged both structurally and functionally, whilst at the same time remaining completely separable.
