WHITE LACQUER ROOT BOOKSHELF
-
Description
Indoor/outdoor bookshelf in white lacquered wood, designed by Umberto Pasti and made in Tangier.
Each piece, carefully handmade by Umberto Pasti's cabinetmakers is unique with natural asymmetry and distortions of the roots
Coordinated armchairs, benches, tables and storage available to order in different colors.
All the furniture is made from dry arbutus roots, a very hard and almost rot-proof wood, gleaned from the hills overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. An eco-responsible and sustainable collection, entirely made in Morocco.
Inspiration: Designed by Umberto Pasti, Italian writer and horticulturist for his Rohuna Gardens, this collection features shapes with classic references and cheerful colors.
That was more than 20 years ago, and Umberto Pasti indeed wasted no time in getting to work planting. Today, Pasti has 25 acres of his own paradise few distance from Tangier, a good portion of which is dedicated to indigenous flora. With his team of local gardeners, he has transplanted greenery salvaged from construction sites to his property, where it thrives for the majority of the year (it disappears during the hot summers). But Pasti has also created the Garden of Consolation, a collection of rooms, terraces, and outdoor plots that are watered year-round to maintain the blooms. The result is not only a snapshot of the diverse landscapes of Morocco, but also a glimpse into the mind of Pasti. -
