Ptolomeo grows, evolves, multiplies, as Bruno Rainaldi liked to say: the family is starting! Ptolomeo x2 originates from the "splitting" of the Original Ptolomeo, and from the same column there is a double row of shelves mirroring each other. The optical effect that comes from this element is absolutely unique, a central column with two piles of books almost 2 meters tall on their sides, protected on the back by only two thin steel rods. The shelves, as with all the bookshelves of the "Ptolomeo" family, seems to disappear once they fill up with books. Made of lacquered metal, Ptolomeo x2 is absolutely free standing and is available in two different finishes glossy lacquered white for the whole bookshelf or with structure and the shelves in matt lacquered black with the base in stainless st

The library develops around a central column from which the square shelves originate, depending on the height and the typology, from a minimum of 3 to maximum 14. Its slender line does not go unnoticed and its design, which starts from a simple concept, gives to spaces an impeccable and unique style. It is not cumbersome and it can be used in three different arrangements, also it is available in 2 heights (110 or 197 cm) and can contains books horizontally or vertically, creating a suggestive patchwork eff

Ptolomeo X4 Short by Opinion Ciatti has been designed by Bruno Rainaldi. In the Ptolomeo family there is some space for a "mini" version. Ptolomeo x4 short is the 4-sided 360° degree revolving version of Ptolomeo x4, and functions as a mini bookcase, coffe or bedside table according to needs and preferences.

With a fixed top it is ideal as a bedside table or next to the couch, it also absolutely functional as it features a small compartment with a sliding door, perfect for placing all those objects that end up being easily lost around.

To celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Compasso d’Oro, Ptolomeo lights up with warm white Led lights, which gives a more precious look and emphasises the presence of volumes, of the furniture that has shaped an indelible revolution in the world of design. Ptolomeo Luce combines the most famous features of Original Ptolomeo with a functional LED light applied to the back. A library and at the same time a lamp, this particular piece of Ptolomeo allows to organise books and also to pleasantly enlighten the room with soft light. Like the original version Ptolomeo Luce is made up of a lacquered metal column, resting on a solid base, also made of metal, designed to give balance to the entire structure. Books are placed on small overlapping shelves that disappear as the column fills with boo

Ptolomeo Wall is the wall version of the Original Ptolomeo and could be defined as the "column of knowledge”. A stack of levitating books or a ground-air column (floor-ceiling) for every space in which it is placed. Equal to the Original version, except for the base, Ptolomeo wall is a metal column from which a series of C-shaped shelves depart, and once filled it disappears to leave the books at the center of the scene. Absolutely essential, it is the ideal solution for those without much place available for furnitures, taking advantages of the vertical spaces in the environment. Ptolomeo wall is perfect for creating potential infinite columns of books that can challenge the law of gravity. In traditional apartments or high ceiling lofts, there is no place that cannot be achieved by wi

Original Ptolomeo is the self-standing bookcase that doesn’t require any further presentation: it is simple, revolutionary, innovative, as sudden as an intuition and as surprising as its success. Designed by Bruno Rainaldi, winner of the 2004 Compasso d’Oro, Original Ptolomeo stems from observation rather than from a formal process and translates an idea that is as simple as it is ingenious, i.e. transforming a pile of books into a design object, into a furnishing accessory. "Bruno Rainaldi about Ptolomeo collection: "Piles of books on the study tables, too many to get round with the duster. Piles of books on all the other table in the house, that you have to move every time you need to lay the table. A pile on the bedside table to the left of the bed, and another on the floor beside t
