ADI Design Index 2006, selected for the XXI Compasso d’Oro ADI
In 2005, the German studio Neuland Industriedesign designed an elegant and sophisticated bookcase for MDF Italia, characterised by irregularly arranged shelves that added dynamism and rhythm to its structure. A bestseller from the collection, Random was selected in 2006 for the XXI Compasso d'Oro ADI. With Random, the bookcase is transformed from a simple functional container into a design sculpture. Among the first to display rather than conceal objects, it became an expression of the individuality of those who use it: books, personal items, and travel souvenirs find their place on its shelves, telling unique stories. A new way of living with and interpreting the bookcase.Twenty years after its creation, Random remains one of the icons of the MDF Italia collection.
Available in the 2C, 3C, and 5C versions, it offers great compositional flexibility thanks to its wide range of modules, sizes, and finishes. The colour palette ranges from white and ivory to English green, burgundy, and grey, through to the refined Canaletto walnut finish.
Perfect as a standalone piece for more intimate settings, it can also be arranged in larger compositions, playing with sizes and colours to create visually striking configurations.

"MDF Italia is the ideal partner for anyone who wishes to always be topical but never in fashion, to work with state-of-the-art technology without being held hostage by it, to recognise trends without pursuing them."
Since 1997, Neuland Industriedesign has been offering services across various sectors, from furniture to cosmetics. The team, which includes Eva Paster and Michael Geldmacher, operates relying on the idea that design is a process aimed at discovering the essence of each product. A book on a shelf, for example, communicates its content and the desire to capture attention: in this way, the focus of the project shifts from the surface itself to the book placed on it. Following this philosophy, they designed the Random modular bookcase for MDF Italia, an iconic bestseller of the company.
