BD Barcelona and Belén Moneo Rethink Scrap Materials in REmix Collection

BD Barcelona and Belén Moneo Rethink Scrap Materials in REmix Collection

BD Barcelona Design recently revealed REmix Collection vol.5 is designed by Belén Moneo with a focus on her interests in plasticity, geometry, material, light, transparency, and color. The overarching goal of the REmix Project is to give otherwise obsolete scrap materials a second chance at life through recovering, recycling, and reusing.

In 2001, Rafael Moneo – Belén Moneo’s father and architect – designed the Romana Table. Now she faced the challenge of converting deadstock table legs from the Romana into limited edition bookshelves and a colorful collection of bookends.

The Emérita shelf is a powerful piece, utilizing BD’s signature material of Plexiglas and those geometric wooden table legs mentioned above, a floating sensation is created through the viewer’s perception. When inspected horizontally, Emérita reveals a horizontal plane full of shadows that was the jumping off point for the accompanying bookends design.
