Misuraemme
WL2 Bookshelf
The WL2 bookcase by MisuraEmme, designed by Wolfgang Laubersheimer, interprets the theme of the bookcase as a pure and functional architectural structure. The system is based on a simple modular composition, in which vertical uprights and horizontal shelves define a rigorous balance between solids and voids. WL2 stands out for its visual lightness and compositional flexibility, which allows the bookcase to be adapted to different spatial and functional needs. The design, reduced to its essence, reflects Laubersheimer's rationalist approach, attentive to the relationship between structure, use, and space. Designed for residential and professional environments, WL2 is a contemporary and timeless bookcase, capable of showcasing books and objects with order, precision, and understated elegance, perfectly in tune with the MisuraEmme design philosophy.

MisuraEmme is a company that has its roots in the centuries-old craft tradition of Brianza. Throughout its long history, which began in 1902 with the foundation by the Mascheroni family, it has played a leading role in the vicissitudes of Italian design. In the years of industrialization, it has become important as one of the spearheads of the world of Made in Italy furniture, thanks to its factory of over 35,000 square meters in Mariano Comense which has guaranteed a productive force with few equals. In more recent years the brand has also distinguished itself for its marked environmental sensitivity, acquiring ecological painting systems.Read more
Designed by
Wolfgang Laubersheimer
Wolfgang Laubersheimer (1955–) is a German designer based in Cologne. Trained in metalworking in the early 1980s at the Cologne University of Applied Sciences, he is particularly remembered for his work within the design collective Pentagon, which he founded in 1985 together with Gerd Arens, Ralph Sommer, Reinhard Müller, and Meyer Voggenreiter. His most celebrated project dates back to 1987: the Casino Café, designed for the eighth edition of Documenta Kassel, Germany’s most important contemporary art exhibition. Conceived as a modern reinterpretation of the traditional “artists’ café” and furnished with pieces designed by the various members of the collective, the project was characterized by a restrained aesthetic and the use of durable materials. It revisited and updated Bauhaus-derived principles, standing in deliberate contrast to the Postmodern trends that dominated the 1980s. From 1992 onward, following the dissolution of the Pentagon group, Laubersheimer devoted himself primarily to teaching at the Köln International School of Design (KISD). One of his designs, the WL2 bookcase from 1985, is currently reissued by the Italian brand MisuraEmme.Read more
