Prospettico Cabinet

Cabinet designed by Paolo Portoghesi for Meccani Arredamenti, 1980.

This two-door cabinet reflects Paolo Portoghesi’s interest in layered composition, with a careful balance of material, rhythm and decorative detail. Inserts in cherry, maple and rosewood create an architectural pattern across the surface, while the three central drawers interrupt the vertical lines of the doors and give the piece a more functional rhythm. A recessed mirror completes the design, adding depth to a wardrobe in which storage and ornament are given equal weight.
