Alfredo Häberli chose basic geometric shapes and piled them one on top of the other to create interesting patterns. Both the variation and the contours give the bookcase a fascinating and visual shape. Pattern bookcases are furniture sculptures, suitable for storing books and exhibiting objects. "I love books very much: their weight, smell and haptics. They are a source of inspiration and relaxation and I love to be surrounded by them. You could say that I am a book maniac. The idea of Pattern is to create a nonhorizontal shelf. One which will help to keep thin books or magazines in an upright position. In my search for a geometrical figure to repeat, I found an irregular pentagon which, when one is added to the other, creates a pattern and can be used several sizes. Meanwhile there is a horizontal surface which allows for the arranging of objects on it. Showing the pattern of Pattern also in the back, it can be used as a room divider." (Alfredo Häberli)
