Furniture as a sculpture, Alfredo Häberli inspired the design community to drop the square predictable cabinets and experiment with different forms and shapes. " The idea of Pattern is to create a non-horizontal shelf. One that helps the thin books or magazines to stay in an upright position. By searching a geometrical figure to repeat, I found an irregular pentagon which adding it to another, creates a Pattern and gives the opportunity of using it for several sizes. Meanwhile there is a horizontal surface which allows arranging objects on it "
