Brest
Made by Cappellini
Designed by Giulio Cappellini
Giulio Cappellini has long treated furniture as a conversation between form and function, and the Brest cabinet series embodies that sensibility with quiet authority. A slender metal frame lifts each unit off the floor, lending the composition an almost architectural lightness that belies its practical generosity.
Finish options span matte and glossy lacquer alongside natural santos, oak, wengé-stained oak, and black-stained oak, allowing the piece to read as understated warmth or graphic precision depending on the surrounding palette. Handles in polished chrome or matte lacquer complete the surface, maintaining a coherent visual rhythm across every configuration.
