A versatile and elegant furnishing system elaborated upon down the years by the same designer working on the idea of a structure composed of wooden uprights and cross-beams incorporating horizontal shelves and vertical in-fill shelves, including the sliding panels functionally characterising the project. The design now being re-proposed features a structure in which the seamless horizontal planes hold up the vertical elements and are fitted with extruded aluminium cross-beams, whose distinctive section is designed to allow the front doors to slide. The doors’ interplay of concealing and revealing is the most distinctive stylistic feature of this still incredibly cutting-edge furnishing system: just like the systems designed by Charles and Ray Eames, here is another 20th-century classic handed down to us.
