Sfumato: Modular Shelving System

Nedim Mutevelic presents Sfumato, a dynamic and modular shelving system that reflects the metropolis for contemporary indoor spaces. The design, inspired by the urban landscape, features a stable and massive bottom, with a broken and fragmented top, creating a continuous and endless horizontal base. The system offers various heights, depths, and transparencies, allowing for different configurations and dimensions through the simple combination of modules. Sfumato is a stand-alone or wall shelf system made of MDF with a matt lacquered finish, suitable for living and office spaces.

The project started in 2018 in Sarajevo and Djakovo, and was produced in Djakovo during 2018. Sfumato has been showcased at various fairs and exhibitions, including IMM Cologne, BIG SEE AWARD - MONTH OF DESIGN, AMBIENTA Furniture Fair, BFF, and AMBIENT Fair. The design was awarded the Big See Product Design Award in 2019 and is planned to be presented at SALONE DEL MOBILE in Milano. Sfumato's unique visual language for a modular system creates a seamless whole, overcoming creative and technical challenges to evoke the skyline of an urban landscape.
