Dimensions: 15 × 25 × H15 cm (each house)
Materials: Lecce stone (natural limestone)
Set: two houses sold only as a pair
The Case & Casette collection gathers small houses imagined by renowned architects, among them Riccardo Dalisi, Ugo La Pietra, Steven Holl and Alvaro Siza. Each piece is entirely made of Lecce stone and conveys the values of Italian and Apulian identity. The project expresses what its authors call the humanisation of technology.
Lecce stone has shaped the churches and palaces of Salento for centuries. Pimar has worked this limestone since 1880 and today interprets it with contemporary designers. Each piece is machined with precision and finished by hand. Its tones and grain vary naturally from one object to the next.
Each piece is made to order in Italy.
DUE CASETTE Bookends
100% Made in Italy
The Pimar DUE CASETTE bookends are two small houses in Lecce stone, designed by architect Luca Scacchetti. Each block is carved with doors, windows and essential roof lines, and one of the houses has a pitched roof. Sold only as a pair, together they hold a row of books like a tiny village on a shelf. They belong to Case & Casette, a series of small sculptures on the human dream of living. The pale limestone gives them a soft, timeless look. They are collectible Italian bookends with the poetry of architecture.
