Mid century ‘Dodona 300’ Bookcase by Ernesto Gismondi for Artemide – 1960s, Italy
A rare and iconic modular shelving system from the 1960s, designed by renowned Italian architect and industrial designer Ernesto Gismondi for Artemide, one of Italy’s most influential design manufacturers. This is the Dodona 300 model, a part of Artemide’s modular furniture series that emphasized flexibility, function, and clean modernist aesthetics.
Constructed with a minimalist white lacquered finish, the system features adjustable shelves allowing you to customize the layout to suit your storage or display needs. Designed with architectural precision, it reflects Gismondi’s background in aerospace engineering and Artemide’s dedication to forward-thinking design.
