As its name suggests, the main characteristic of the Backdrop sideboard by Alain Gilles is the vertical cut of the doors, which evokes a sense of calm, thanks to its repetition along the entire length.
The design of this piece of furniture is well-structured, drawing inspiration from the fades of the modernist buildings: the vertical lines hide the grooves used to open the doors. The frame defining the sideboard is light and goes almost unnoticed, designed to discreetly and elegantly enhance the regularity of the front elements.
The Backdrop sideboard is available in Canaletto walnut, or caramel glossy lacquered wood.
