Dom Hans van der Laan Bookshelf, Netherlands, 1960s

$ 3,750
  • Description
    Introducing a pair of exceptionally rare bookcases, designed by the legendary Dom Hans van der Laan and executed for the Sint-Johannes Geboortekerk Nieuwkuijk in 1955, under the architectural guidance of his brother, Nico van der Laan. These bookcases are not just furniture; they're architectural heritage. They were designed using the innovative "Plastic number," a unique geometric ratio developed by Dom Hans van der Laan to create aesthetically pleasing and harmonious proportions in architectural and design elements. Impeccably preserved in their original grey lacquer finish and versatile in function, these bookcases offer a unique opportunity to own a piece of architectural and design legacy. Rarely available and steeped in history, these one-of-a-kind bookcases are priced individually.
