covet _____book block

can't decide if i would want this bookshelf for myself or my future child. functional from both sides as the letter cutouts are hollow, it can be used as a room divider or the perfect exhibition space for one's accumulated junk i mean priceless treasures.
made by helsinki based designer lincoln kayiwa, this playful yet functional unit challenges the owner to dismiss the concept of neat and tidy linear storage and embrace the notion of harmoniously disorganized chaos. a fitting representation of the creative mind no? strange combinations that don't alway make sense, never particularily orderly, but all fits together anyway. the AAKKOSET as it's named, get its metal like smooth surface quality from being composed of medium-density fibre, which is a type of engineered wood fibre+resin+wax that is easy to manipulate and drill through and stronger than plywood..

these days i seem to be daydreaming about furniture rather than clothes, maybe it's a side effect of living in ottawa? just think, if you left the AAK empty (see we are already on nickname terms), you could set up small tea light candles/ LEDs in each crevice and experiment with the silhouettes the shadows would project on the wall...or even 'light up' a message to your significant other (again, what s.o. am i talking about?) like 'I' 'LUV' 'Y'. it also comes in glossy black, green, yellow, white, violet, blue and orange!!! ok i'm getting too attached. and at almost $20,000 canadian dollars and available only in finland that's probably not a good idea. check it out here
