House Note · About this piece

Formentera, the smallest of the four main Balearic islands, is where people go to slow right down: the beach by day, then a book in the shade of the house through the hottest part of the afternoon. This bookcase is made for a house that reads like that. Its arched top and open shelves give the summer's paperbacks, a few shells and a treasured bowl a place to be seen, and its outside is woven by hand from banana leaf for a warm, natural texture.

Under the weave is a solid hardwood frame, so the bookcase stays steady with a full load of books. At 84 inches tall and 36 inches wide it has real presence against a wall, and at 14 inches deep it stands close without eating into the room. The shelves are open at the front, so everything on them is in easy reach.

Fill it in a living room with books, baskets and pottery, or stand it in a bedroom or sunroom with folded throws and plants. A pair either side of a doorway or a window makes a handsome, balanced frame. This listing is for one bookcase.
