Item description
Lips Vago's trio of black Congress bookcases from the 1960s exude an aura of timeless sophistication and functional elegance. These bookcases, made of elegant black painted metal, are iconic symbols of the ingenuity and practicality of design from an era that embraced both style and substance. The embodiment of an unmistakable design language, the Congress bookcase by Lips Vago boasts exceptional qualities of durability, safety, flexibility and perfect integration into any environment, whether domestic or professional. Its recognition by the Smau 1968 Award for Industrial Design underlines its importance in the field of design excellence. In this set we offer the 300 cm high version. The bookcases can also be assembled together. Constructed from sheet steel, the 'Congress' shelf is a testimony to robustness and discretion and offers a versatile addition to any space thanks to its ability to be used on both sides. The metal plates at the ends of the shelf, positioned upwards, act not only as stabilisers but also as bookends, ensuring form and functionality. The creation of the Congresso bookcase by Lips Vago represents a harmonious fusion of Vago's Italian metalworking skills and Lips' Dutch cabinetmaking expertise. Together, they have created a piece that transcends mere utility, becoming a statement of refined taste and enduring quality. In a world where design often sacrifices practicality for aesthetics or vice versa, Congress bookcases testify to the possibility of achieving both seamlessly. They evoke a sense of nostalgia for a time when craftsmanship and functionality were held in high regard, inspiring admiration and appreciation for their timeless appeal.
