Bookcase: shelves in a new essence of eucalyptus, structure in Magnesium textured metal in a silvery-grey tone.
"A man's library will tell you everything you need to know about him." So wrote the novelist Walter Mosley, citing a quote from his father. Certainly, the bookcase is the piece of furniture in a home or office that, of all things, is capable of revealing the nature of a soul, a window into people's interests, experiences, and heritage. In the Executive Office furniture family, the Carter bookcase responds with more regular geometries to the more articulated ones of the desk. Here, Lipparini gets a vital sense of rigor and versatility for the functions of containing and displaying. The horizontal surfaces, made of an exotic wood such as eucalyptus, alternate with vertical panels in worked and texturized metal in a random random order, marking the irregular phrasing, like in a musical pentagram. The combination of material and kinetic form makes Carter something more than a useful product for today.
It prepares to be a personal showcase for the years to come, the physical expression of the spirit and mind and all the stories of each of us.

Mauro Lipparini
Italy
Mauro Lipparini graduated in 1980 from the University of Florence’s Department of Architecture where he has also been a faculty member. A leader and innovator in the style that has been called “natural minimalism,” Lipparini is a winner of the Young & Design Milano (Italy 1987) and International Du Pont Award Köln (Germany 1988 and 1989) international design competitions. Lipparini’s extensive work in the field of industrial design includes home and office furnishings, textiles, and other products created for a host of renowned European and Japanese firms. In the realms of architecture and interior design, Lipparini has concentrated primarily on private and public housing, retail and wholesale showrooms, and exposition installations. Lipparini also provides cutting-edge corporate identity construction services including graphic design, editorial, full-scale production, and product application. Lipparini’s style, rooted in the spare forms and clear, powerful lines that are the hallmarks of minimalism, is imbued with a spirit of joy, a buoyant sense of pleasure and possibility. Freely employing bold colors, organic textures, imaginative visual concepts, Lipparini broadens the palette of minimalism, conveying the immediacy and strength of the aesthetic into a new era.
