Bruno Fattorini Minima 40 and Minima 29 Pensile
A modular wall-mounted structure in natural-finish
anodized aluminium designed to solve storage problems (of books, files
and ornaments with open or closed compartments) throughout the house,
in the home office and in all working environments.
Thanks to special
panels developed by MDF Italia research, the structure may be filled in
at any point, as required, either at the ends or in the intermediate
vertical frame, to form sides or backs. This allows to have open, one
or two-sided storage facilities which, if desired, may run through the
intermediate vertical frame.
The storage compartments may be closed off
with retractable doors or drawers. Panels are always removable and can
be repositioned in every module of the structure, simply by moving the
screws, allowing the user to change the configuration of the storage
space as desired or needed.
The possibility of using the units both
back and front makes this design suitable as a room divider in both
home and working environments. The end and intermediate vertical
elements have pre-assembled pins and fittings.
The structure is made from extruded anodized
aluminium, section 15 x 15 mm. A special assembly system (pins plus a
shelfanchoring device), endows the structure with a high load-bearing
capacity and excellent stability. The shelves are composed of 2 mm
thick sheets of anodized aluminium, in two usable lengths (34.3 and 70
cm.), with a depth of 29 or 40 cm, and are made to slide directly into
grooves in the cross bars. For the Minima 40 special intermediate end
frames (height: 84.5, 121, 157.5, 194 and 230 cm) can be requested.
They allow to make compositions of different heights one next to the
other (composition arranged in ascending order). The feet allow to
adjust the structure to 15 mm. In Minima 29 a steel bookend element may
also be fitted directly onto the cross bars of the frames. Sides and backs may be filled with 12 mm thick panels made by combining
anodized aluminium sheets with recyclable, soundabsorbing extruded
plastic material.
The panels have special stepped-shaped edges made in
the same plastic filler material, which function as a light-proof and
dust-proof seal. The panels are always easy to assemble and remove
thanks to a slide-in and lock arrangement using centering pins and
invisible steel balls. The sides of the panels may be modified to
obtain open compartments or modules closed with drawers or doors.
Dividing panels may be variously equipped, for example, to hold drawers
on one side and an open compartment on the other, etc... DOORS: The
retractable, drop-front doors, with a compass hinge, are available in: ultra-light, high-tech, recyclable anodized aluminium panelling; 4
mm thick clear or "sanded" glass; handles in extruded anodized
aluminium.
Drawers with special aluminium front panels have
bodies made entirely in anodized aluminium with totally extractable
guides. In depth 29 cm, the drawer sides are made of steel, finished
with an aluminium paint. The drawers come in sets of two or three per
compartment.
