FLAT.C ANTONIO CITTERIO /01 LIBRERIE MODULARI / MODULAR BOOKCASES L’impatto grafico di Flat.C è ben visibile nell’esempio a fianco dove tre contenitori a sviluppo orizzontale sporgono dalle linee dei ripiani e dei fianchi.

Flat.C’s graphic impact is truly seen in the example on the opposite page, where three horizontal projecting containers are positioned to protrude from the outline of the sides...

ANTE SCORREVOLI ORIZZONTALI / HORIZONTAL SLIDING DOORS Un elemento significativo deriva dalla anta a tutta altezza che, scorrendo su binari “invisibili” integrati nella struttura, nasconde alcune porzioni della parete attrezzata, per esempio quella che contiene l’apparecchio televisivo rendendolo visibile solo nel momento dell’utilizzo. Superficie importante, laccata satinata o in vetro, completa il sistema e, insieme agli altri elementi, contribuisce a sottolinearne l’eleganza. One truly significant element is the door that covers the complete height of the bookcase, sliding on “invisible” tracks...
