Componibili

Model 4979

Componibili is a round or square modular piece of storage furniture and one of Kartell’s best sellers to this day. Made entirely of plastic, this piece comes with different modules: the original piece had customizable stackable modules, giving the user the final power of decision - nowadays only a simplified round model is available, no longer stackable nor customizable. The square version of the storage solution was designed in 1967, two years before the circular version was released. Both versions were a novel way of meeting young people’s demands during the 1960’s, who wanted more informal and lightweight furniture pieces. The bright colors and flexible nature of ensemble fit into the aesthetic and socio-cultural demands of the time of its creation, while also turning it into a timeless piece of furniture that appeals to a similar public currently.
