Alplan is a four-door cabinet made as a single block using wood with vertical grain.
It is manually finished on all sides using plane and gouge. The burnished steel latches and concealed hinges are specially designed and crafted.
The entire manufacturing and finishing process is carried out manually in our workshop.
The wood used for this piece is Juglans Regia – common Italian walnut; not dried but “raw”. This wood belongs to the Latin tradition of furniture-making and features an extremely compact fibre which can however be worked without too much difficulty; it is therefore highly suitable for household items.
The changing arrangement of the planes of this structure – albeit within the meditative silence of the general context – involves human and poetic aspects in its function, making the home a new setting for lively communication.
