Minimal Sleek Aluminum Bookstands

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Blanked Studios Creates the Industrial Bookstand

— July 2, 2025 — Art & Design
Blanked Studios shines a spotlight on its latest project: the Industrial Bookstand. It is a prime example of what is integral in modern interiors as it may not seem like much as a quick glance, but the sculptural design exceeds expectations. It immediately demands attention when one enters the room, making itself a great piece of decor with a functional element hiding behind it.

The bookstand blends a balanced aluminum brushed 'wings.' It is rooted by the center which is made with American black walnut to invite a warm visual and some contrast. The harmonious design also has an organic richness to the cool and metallic structure. Sharp lines join the angular look to evoke a familiar shape.
