Venus bookcase is designed by Fabio Novembre for Driade with structure and shelves in natural oak with saw-effect and support elements of shelves in oak massive wood. The sculpture is in recomposed white marble.
Venus represents an harmonious synthesis between design and sculpture. It is essential to read through a double key of reading to interpret this project: a piece of furniture like a statue, represents here not only a decorative object, but it enigmatically fits between a shelf and another, becoming a real funtional bookcase. Venus, the goddess of love, is caught in an act of nudity, and her beloved offers her a veil of marble, to hide from prying eyes: this is the love for the ART of Fabio Novembre.
