The sides and top of the cabinet are defined by symmetrical obtuse angles that frame four identical panels, with the center pair of doors flanked by offset side panels. Each panel is divided vertically by three parallel, equally spaced trim pieces, with horizontal trim running the full width of the cabinet just below the top and above the base molding. The eased edges of the top and base mirror each other, with the only other curvature occurring at the center raised emblem surrounding the rounded edges of the door plate. The resulting geometry combines classical symmetry with an expansive sense of movement, resembling a symphony conductor's outstretched arms and hands. Inside the cabinet is an adjustable shelf.
