Sculptural Bookend by Woud

The Arkiv bookend by Woud , when paired with a stack of books, forms a small graphic ensemble inspired by the function and aesthetics of classical architectural arches and columns. With its dynamic form, the bookend captures the light and casts harmonious shadows that add a charming highlight to any living space. Crafted from concrete, the bookend is a decorative work of art even without books. Drawing on her background in art history, Russian designer Ella Shegai incorporates cross-cultural styles, motifs, and associations into the context of product design. She takes an aesthetic and playful approach to design and explores the versatility of forms and structures.
