BOOK STAND TRIBUTE
My modest tribute to a GREAT artist who unfortunately is no longer with us, at least in physical form. What he left us is a boundless quantity of timeless works of art, many of which are collected in an exceptional publication by the Taschen publishing house.
This very volume is dedicated to the modular lectern illustrated below.

One of the creatures born from the mind of Hans Rudolf Giger that has become universally known is that cheerful little Xenomorph, such a friend of Sigourney Weaver aka Lieutenant Ellen Ripley. Much of the work of the illustrious Swiss citizen has featured beings on the edge of terrifying, hybrids between man and machine emerging from dark scenarios where the dominant color is the non-color par excellence: black. I tried to sum all this up in the design of a lectern dedicated to the beautiful book from the Taschen publishing house, elegantly bound by Mauro Loce. A book of significant size that deserves to be kept on display, becoming the centerpiece of a space for many, but not for everyone. M A


Delving into the dark abyss of Giger's mind is an experience that leaves its mark (and if it doesn't, you definitely have some issues) because doing so means observing the thousand shades of a truly unique parallel reality.
The construction allows you to appreciate every detail of the modular structure. The celebratory forms are meant to pay tribute to a great Artist who will always remain among us through his works.

The modular lectern is very easy to assemble without the use of any tools. When disassembled, it takes up little space. When assembled, it is extremely stable for consulting heavy and large volumes.
