Inspired by the prominent features of the ‘Lebanese house’, the Nasab Bookcase showcases a curated selection of books and offers a design that is both beautiful and functional. Acting as a display piece as well as one of practical use, it is versatile in the sense that it can reflect the inhabitants of a home and be multi-faceted and dynamic, giving both beauty and function to the room it is located in. “I wanted to design a shelving [piece] that showcases the inherent value of hard copy, challenges the notion of a traditional bookcase and is beautiful yet functional enough to be worth buying. As a result of this creative process, I now find myself thinking more about the stories objects can tell and how they can evolve with their owners,” shared Mekawi with identity during the UAE Designers Exhibition 5.0 at Downtown Design 2024. www.chaficmekawi.com
