Two grounded forms hold a small library in place. Their uneven silhouettes turn the space between books into part of the composition.
Proposed dimensionsApprox. 8 W x 9 D x 13 H cm each
An object in development. Product and packaging images illustrate the intended direction; final pieces may differ. Not available to order.
01 / The idea behind the object
Rather than treating books as a row to be hidden, this pair frames the interval they occupy. One pale body and one dark body establish a quiet contrast; their wandering lines resist the strict geometry of a shelf. The proposal brings a small sculptural composition into the repeated act of taking a book down and returning it.
02 / Form & material
Design targets, not measurements of finished stock. Dimensions, weight, materials, contents and packaging will be confirmed after physical trials. W = width, D = depth, H = height. Irregular forms are described by their approximate overall dimensions.
03 / Inside the box
A common kraft outer language. Interior support shaped around the needs of this object.
Two bookends; care card. Books excluded.
One stock carton, protective packing and a care card are planned. Final accessories and assembly instructions, where applicable, will be specified before release.
Separate each heavy bookend in smooth wrap and corrugated sleeves. A full-height partition and reinforced base should keep the two pieces from striking one another.
This is a packing plan, not a validated transit specification.
Shared stock cartons and a single-colour label keep the packaging language consistent without a dedicated luxury box for every form. Smooth surface wrap comes first; folded corrugated pads, dividers and paper cushioning are added where needed.
Heavy or glazed pieces may need a reinforced or double-boxed transit pack. The final choice depends on packed weight and handling trials, not appearance alone.
04 / Living with the object
Care directions and performance limits remain provisional until material and prototype testing are complete.
For a modest row of books on a level shelf. Each piece is intended to work independently as well as in a pair. Total weight, shelf grip and resistance to tipping must be established with physical prototypes. Not proposed for restraining unusually heavy or tall books.
Until the final finish is established, the intended care direction is dry indoor use and gentle dusting with a soft, clean cloth. Lift from the base rather than sliding. Avoid soaking, dishwashers, solvents, abrasive cleaners, prolonged moisture and direct heat. Final product-specific care instructions will accompany any release.
The proposed route begins with a drawing, moves through a three-dimensional model and a printed master, then into a hand-prepared silicone mould. Casting, curing, finishing and physical trials follow. The exact binder, pigment system, sealer and any separate hardware will be selected before the object is offered for sale.
Prototype checks will cover dimensions, flatness or balance, weak edges, contact surfaces and the suitability of the intended function. Packaging trials must check movement inside the carton, surface rubbing and impact protection. Neither the concept images nor the stated price establish tested durability, waterproofing or product certification.
The displayed ₩129,000 is an indicative KRW price, not a checkout offer. Final pricing, delivery charges, lead times and applicable purchase terms will be published before orders open. No payment or reservation is accepted on this page.
