Production Technology: the module system comes in different types of back panels that can be combined together depending on the size needed. Stainless steel brackets fixed to the back panel create the support that holds the shelves that are made of 4mm aluminum sheets. the brackets are covered by a 3cm x 3cm wooden sleeve that can have different finish (Natural wood or Colored finish). An end cup which can be made of different materials like Brass, Marble, Wood,....covers the end of the Bracket.
Inspiration: minimal and modular design were the key elements behind Kozo design.
I wanted the end user to have the possibility to interact with the design and be part of it, make it more personalized.
the possibility to create different composition by placing different types of modular shelves and integrating different material and colors, makes each Kozo bookshelf a unique piece.
