Octo is the first shelving unit I have designed for the Lithuanian company Viruna. I wanted to create a piece that combined elegance and uniqueness, a shelving unit that stood out for its versatility and simplicity. A timeless piece.

To achieve this, I drew inspiration from a very simple geometric shape: the octagon. This flat figure serves as both the support and the connection of the shelving unit, two essential elements of the piece. On one hand, the columns, with their octagonal shape, make the light accentuate their faceted surfaces. On the other hand, the metal connection, in addition to linking the columns and shelves together, adds a touch of colour to the piece.

Furthermore, to give character to the shelving unit, I designed the shelves with semicircular ends, giving the piece a unique personality.

As can be seen, it is a collection of wooden shelves full of small details that make it stand out.

Octo is available in three different widths and, thanks to its design, it can grow in height, up to a maximum of five shelves, allowing the customer to create a shelving unit to their liking and adapt it to various spaces.
