The bookcase is creative wall
I have read, listened, written, drawn, painted, photographed, visited… Everything can be more interesting if you remain curious, if you do not lose the desire to learn and experiment. I pause to observe the contrasts of colors, the different points of view of a shot, the sound of synonyms with which the same thing can be described, the harmony of a painting. A note can also be color, poetry is also melody, an image can scream more than one word. The expression: that's all... it's all here. (Editorial Director - Art Director)
To talk about myself I would use the English concept of Language Enthusiast, with its bad translation into Italian. Years of study, travel and authentic and pulsating passion for what lies beyond the border converge in this expression. I have an indiscriminate interest in any culture and any person with a story to tell. I remain with difficulty compressed in my dimension, I feel the continuous need to push myself further. I can't stand the innuendo, the half sentences and the boredom of waiting rooms. Certainly communicative, analytical, I split reality into a thousand pieces and then reassemble it. I think and write in 4 languages, which I love all of them, because inside they sing me a beautiful song. (Editor - Translator).
What unites Piacentini's Architecture with Greenaway's Cinema, Munari's Design with Tiepolo's painting and Kandiskij's studies? What unites the election posters with the paper tickets we used for the tram? For visual culture, the challenge of the third millennium lies in seeing the red thread that binds each of its branches to tell the image and aesthetics. I would like to do it through a passion that comes from the tradition of classic cinema. After all, what is the history of Design if not the cerebral attempt to give a soul to matter, to plagiarize the form according to its most hidden meaning and all to be revealed? (Editor - Reporter)

The bookcase is always one of the supporting elements of a house, because the books it contains tell about the personality of those who live there, so they tell us about its soul. So much so that Horace Mann is credited with the phrase A house without books is like a room without windows and the nineteenth-century English politician was right to sell.
DOiT is the CAOSCREO bookcase founded on geometric lines which, through minimalist shapes, form rectangular departments. Its structure is therefore very stable, well set up and long-limbed, essentially developing vertically: this gives the piece of furniture a certain elegance that stands out in the interior.
Three different versions of DOiT allow different physiognomies for corresponding different flow rates.
This piece of furniture recalls the geometric abstractionism of the early 1900s: think especially of the "non-representative paintings" by the Dutch Piet Mondrian, one of the theorists of the pictorial movement together with Malevic: lines and colors with the use of primaries and artistic “rigor” never gloomy in the compositions.
DOiT 57 is made up of 4 squares, two rectangular and two square. Its dimensions are 57x22x210h cm;
DOiT 90 is already a little more "complex" and equipped with 6 squares of which are the basic one, almost close to the floor, it is square; the others are rectangular. Its dimensions are 90x22x210h cm.
With DOiT 120 the cracks become 9, of which 4 square (in two different sizes) and 5 rectangular. Measurements: 120x22x210h cm.
This modular bookcase was conceived by the designers Andrea Radice and Folco Orlandini; a product whose nature certainly marries an idea of rational use of space as the object itself becomes a creative wall. The alternation of available colors also involves a scenario of harmony with the books we own, often determined on an aesthetic level by the historical series of some publishing houses. Red, white and black are in fact the chromatic versions to create a pandant or a desired contrast for this design operation that encompasses aesthetics, furniture, taste, culture.
Not only that: in some openings then, if we wish, we can also choose to insert particular objects instead of books that can have a meaning for us or for the interior context we have used. This bookcase is made of metal, the recyclable material that CAOSCREO uses for his design, drawing various shapes and studying the infinite possibilities that this element offers to creatives who want to model it.
