We took a sharp turn toward natural & upholstered wicker insets into the doors of a classic modern. To up the ante, we built the drawer faces and interiors from American Oak. We love the contrast of organic mixed materials used in this limited edition. The ample storage compartments of this cabinet make it practical for storage. It's a modernist sideboard, elevated for a contemporary home.
1955 MODERNIST ICON
This cubed wood sideboard was originally designed in 1955 and hovered over thin industrial steel tubes capped in solid oak. When reproducing this classic, we made notes on past usability & made minor adjustments. A reduction in the bank of drawers from 6 to 5 gave more useable vertical space to each remaining drawer. A finger groove was concealed on the drawer face smile for easy opening. We also added a black steel plate behind the drawer smile so contents stacked to the drawer top remain hidden.
ABOUT NATURAL OAK
Easy to coordinate with other wood tones. The natural wood presents warm lighter tones. Natural Oak is a durable, clean grained wood option that mixes well with modernist furniture styles.
