What an awesome design. Did Gio Ponti ever make one of these? [I see he later made a wall-mounted bureau that appears to balance on one tiny, pointy foot.]
Is there any wall-mounted shelf or furniture unit that can't be improved by floating it on a slightly biomorphic sheet of beautifully grained plywood first?
From a series of architects' furniture sketches published in "Arredatori Contemporani," and collected at Mondo Blogo.
