Sassi Editore is looking for a concept for a modular furniture system capable of adapting to different contexts of use such as shops, shopping centres and other shared spaces. The system will feature display areas dedicated to Sassi’s books and activity books. These areas will be available to children and parents with the aim of encouraging moments of reading, interacting, socializing, playing and learning.
You are invited to design a concept for a modular furniture system composed of different elements that are compatible with each other both from a functional and stylistic point of view. Below is a series of examples relating to the elements that could make up the required system. You can propose additional elements when these are deemed useful for setting up the display area. Some non-binding, indicative dimensions are also included; you are free to customize the dimensions of the elements in line with the needs and the target audience.
- Wall bookcase (W200 D40 H260 cm)
- Bookcase with storage compartments (W200 D40 H260 cm)
- Low bookcase shelf with work/reading surface (W200 D80 H86 cm)
- Column display (W60 D60 H170 cm)
- Reading/activity tables (W200 D80 H86 cm)
- Cashier/information counter (W120 D60 H86 cm)
- Stools/chairs
- Container-seat unit
- Play mat
- Equipped wall
- Communication elements/units
The modular furniture system will have to allow for the continuous expansion of the system configurations depending on the size and functionality of the context of installation. To better communicate the versatility of the modular system, you are invited to present at least 3 types of furniture compositions that will be positioned within areas of different sizes: small, medium and large.
