The Jamais Content bookcase, which means “never satisfied”, was born from the philosophy of its designer Marc Ferrand: an architecture that evolves, that is always in movement and in transformation, but at the same time he tends to a minimalist, nomadic and temporary architecture. The modular bookcase is made of citronnier, a type of wood with cold tinge and coming from Ceylon Island. It is composed of shelves, connected to the satin-finished brass 'cross' element, which open up an infinity of architectural solutions. The bookcase can have a more linear or circular shape. It is possible to embellished with a leather door that closes one of the panes, thus creating a fascinating interplay of solids and voids.

Wooden constructions with infinite shapes, Jamais content dialogues with time and architecture.
