About the Item
Metalique Bookshelf by Millim Studio
Unique Piece.
Dimensions: D 40 x W 40 x H 170 cm.
Materials: Aluminum.
The product is handmade. Any variation in color or detailing results from this item's handcrafted nature and makes each piece unique. The product is fully disassemblable. Different materials, colors, and finishes are customizable on request. Please contact us.
Metalique explores the unrepeatable through subtraction.
What is taken away leaves a mark and emphasizes what remains.
The hand-turning process becomes both an element and tool of narration, passage, and transformation.
The return to the artisanal roots of this ancient decorative technique offers the opportunity to explore a relationship with a production whose rhythms are marked by manual dexterity.
Metalique strips the material of its original form intending to discover beauty in its absence.
The products of the collection are characterized by absolute uniqueness as they are the result of human labor and processes not entirely controlled. The turned legs appear both firm and dynamic simultaneously, in a play of light that emphasizes the material's profile. The remnants, aluminum shavings left behind during the process, take on their individuality as remnants of a unified body, laid at its feet.
Millim is a multidisciplinary creative studio.
Founded in Rome by Chiara Pellicano and Edoardo Giammarioli. Their gaze is aimed at the research and construction of new forms of expression that create stable connections between culture, art, design, and communication. The studio works in the fields of creative consultancy, art direction, product design, and collectible design.
In 2024 Millim Studio was selected among the 20 Talents by AD Germany. In 2019 the studio won the Wallpaper* Design Award in the “Best Dream Design Factory” category.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.

FF Grid Shelving 1
By Simon Johns
Located in East-Bolton, Quebec
A slender tower-like sculptural bookcase, made from a rigid hand polished aluminum structure. Through the grid-like structure, a cast form of the collection's signature texture flows continuously through the layers. The polishing of the aluminum creates illusions of transparency on the outside, and interiors that glow, reflecting the light from the room.
*Note: The model pictured has been sold, but commissions are available.
