SAK (Soñando a Kuramata) The result of a design exercise between three Mexican designers and two Finnish carpenters, using as a guideline Shiro Kuramata's design from 1972. The bookshelf is assembled with 12 identical pieces, without any hardware or glue. Shiro Kuramata's design, 64 book shelves, starts with one small square shelf on one corner and finishes with a big square shelf on the opposite, creating a grid that grows in two axis. Our three basic design guidelines were to take that growth to the third dimension, the depth of the shelf, to assemble the whole bookshelf by the repetition of a single piece, and to avoid the use of glue or hardware during assembly. Year: 1999 Designed by Emiliano Godoy, Luis Mercado and Emiliano Garcia, with Tiina Toivola and Jussi Mulari. Sold by Pirwi in Mexico, and by MOOA in the rest of the world.
