Altavoz shelf system by Carlos Tiscar
Spanish designer Carlos Tiscar gives us Altavoz, a sleek shelf system consisting of boxes of different sizes, emphasizing the “visual loudspeaker” concept.

Info from Carlos Tiscar:
The main key of this shelf system is the “visual loudspeaker” concept. It consist in a box with an expressive interior due to the angle of two of his internal sides. This kind of shape reminds me some of Le Corbusier windows and also the aircraft windows (actually they are so small but have a “visual amplification” by the panel shape around it). The idea is that the object put on the box will be “amplified”.

The taste of the object (specially when composed by several items) reminds me some of the “Spanish” XX mid century main artist, as Jorge Oteiza and Gerardo Rueda. But also some small villages in the Mediterranean area like Pe√±√≠scola in the Valencian community.

With only three modules (sizes A4, A3 and A2 formats) and by positioning each both horizontal and vertically, you can make all kind of compositions; wall mounted, on the floor by forming a pile or on a table surface. Of course you can use one single item.
