Structured on two lateral wooden uprights that support the main body in a floating manner, the cabinet combines open and closed storage spaces. The upper section features a compartment with a hinged door decorated with a geometric marquetry panel in clean lines, in shades of blue, red, and gray, evoking the visual language of the De Stijl movement.

It also incorporates several open shelves ideal for books or decorative objects, a horizontal drawer, and a lower storage shelf. A functional and highly decorative piece, perfect as an accent piece in entryways, offices, architecture studios, or contemporary living rooms. See less
