Classic yet contemporary, essential yet extremely flexible. The Jack wall system was born for creating separation bookcases or placed alongside to the wall and is offered in two versions: with vertical floor to ceiling uprights or with vertical uprights to be fixed to the wall, both with or without light. The upright in aluminium, the exclusive joining system and the telescopic adjustment (+40 mm / -40 mm) ensure the maximum strength and formal pureness. The modularity and discrete technical solutions underlying the project make it possible to create compositions for every room and furnishing context. The system features different elements which can be combined to increase the system’s functionality: horizontal shelves in high-pressure stratified available with or without light and storage units in different typologies (with drawers, flap door or hinged doors). The system is available in 14 heights from 2200 mm to 3240 mm (covering all the intermediate dimensions), two lengths and two depths.

Michael Anastassiades
Michael Anastassiades is a Cypriot designer, based in London. He trained as a civil engineer at London’s Imperial College of Science Technology and Medicine before taking a masters degree in industrial design at the Royal College of Art. In 1994 he launched his studio to explore the contemporary notions of culture and aesthetics through a combination of product, furniture and environmental design.
Positioned between fine art and design, his work aims to provoke dialogue, participation and interaction. He creates objects that are minimal and utilitarian, yet full of a vitality one might not expect. Anastassiades’ work is featured in permanent collections of many museums, among them the MoMa in New York, the Victoria and Albert museum and the MAK in Vienna. Recent solo exhibitions include “Time And Again” at the Geymüllerschlössel/MAK in Vienna, “To Be Perfectly Frank” at Svenskt Tenn in Stockholm, an installation at the Norfolk House music room at the Victoria & Albert museum in London, a project to celebrate the Cyprus Presidency at the European Parliament in Brussels.
He has designed products for various leading manufacturers including B&B Italia and Flos. In 2007 he set up the Michael Anastassiades production company creating a collection of lighting, furniture, jewellery and tabletop objects. The studio’s philosophy is a continuous search for eclecticism, individuality and timeless qualities in design.
