D.357.1 D.357.2

The D.357.1 D.357.2 bookcase exemplifies Gio Ponti’s visionary design signature. Originally imagined in 1956-1957 for his private home in Via Dezza, Milan, the bookcase reflects a timeless blend of elegance and practicality. Reissued from his original drawings, the bookcase captures Ponti’s dedication to innovative architectural design and the cultural sophistication that defines the Molteni&C Heritage Collection.

The bookcase’s structure is composed of expertly shaped multilayered wood, embellished with a rich elm veneer. The finish varies between natural transparent and hand-painted white, lending a subtle contrast that highlights the material’s natural beauty while preserving a contemporary silhouette.

Designed to harmonize with diverse interiors, the Gio Ponti bookcase offers versatility, inviting the display of treasured books and objects to enhance the home. It honors a legacy of craftsmanship and timeless Gio Ponti's iconic style, enriching contemporary living with heritage and authenticity.
