Philae - color anodized bookshelf as a work of art

A bookshelf that combines minimalist design, functionality and sustainability: the Philae bookshelf by Raphael Kadid and BWB is a fascinating example of the artistic reinterpretation of aluminum. Made from recyclable aluminium and finished with BWB's hand-dyed multicolour anodizing, the result is a unique piece of furniture with artistic appeal.

Multicolor anodizing as a creative reinterpretation

The result of the collaboration between architect Raphael Kadid and BWB Surface Technology is multi-layered. The color-anodized surface, inspired by aerial photographs of aluminum mining areas, reflects the mineral origins of the material and gives each shelf an unmistakable look.

“Together with BWB Surface Technology, we were able to reinterpret aluminum not only as a material, but also as a creative medium. The multicolour anodizing carried out by hand makes each piece unique.”
