THE CAVE BOOKCASE

An iconic bookcase that creates a private place for reading

THE CAVE BOOKCASE combines a double-sided bookcase with an integrated seating nook, creating a secluded space for reading and quiet reflection. Its distinctive shape stands out in the library while adding a clear function – a small “reading cave” where visitors can retreat for a moment.

Double-sided bookcase with smart zoning

The bookcase is double-sided and works as a practical room divider in libraries and public spaces. It provides generous storage and display on both sides, while the seating element creates a focal point and adds variation to the interior environment.

Upholstered seating in durable wool fabric

The seating is upholstered in durable wool fabric available in a wide range of colours to match the library’s identity. The form is designed to feel cocooning and to support a more private reading experience.

Recessed lighting for a comfortable reading environment

THE CAVE is always supplied with recessed lighting that provides soft, functional illumination. This makes the nook inviting even in larger spaces where lighting and sound conditions vary.

Handcrafted in Småland – every piece is unique

THE CAVE is genuine craftsmanship, made entirely in the heart of Småland. The seating structure is built from bendable plywood laminated in multiple layers and mould-pressed into shape. Foam is then applied and the unit is upholstered in the selected textile. Final assembly is done by hand and each part is adjusted, making every Cave one of a kind.
