Sliding - Storage Closet
Made by Porro
Designed by Piero Lissoni
Piero Lissoni approached the wardrobe not as furniture but as architecture. The Sliding Storage Closet for Porro distills that sensibility into a system of clean planes, continuous interiors, and doors that disappear into the rhythm of a room rather than interrupt it.
Sliding mechanisms eliminate the clearance demands of hinged doors, making the system well-suited to bedrooms, dressing areas, and corridors where every centimeter of floor space carries weight. The interior remains fully accessible and visually coherent whether one panel or several are in motion.
Material composition is where the design opens up. Door panels are available in matte or glossy lacquer, natural wood veneers, melamine, colored glass, and mirror. Transparent and opaque surfaces can alternate within a single composition, allowing light to move through the piece while maintaining practical storage divisions.
- Multiple height and width configurations for custom fit
- Sliding door mechanism, no swing clearance required
- Finishes: matte lacquer, gloss lacquer, wood veneer, melamine, colored glass, mirror
- Transparent and non-transparent panels can be combined within one composition
The result reads as a considered architectural element rather than a piece of furniture introduced into a space as an afterthought.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who designed the Porro Sliding Storage Closet?
The system was designed by Piero Lissoni, a Milan-based architect and designer whose work for Porro spans several decades. Lissoni consistently approaches storage as an architectural gesture, prioritizing proportion and material continuity over ornament.
What door finish options are available for this wardrobe system?
Door panels are offered in matte lacquer, gloss lacquer, natural wood veneer, melamine, colored glass, and mirror. Transparent and opaque panels can be combined within a single composition, giving architects and designers considerable latitude in how light and visual weight are distributed across the piece.
Is the Sliding Storage Closet fully customizable in size?
Yes. The system is available in multiple height and width configurations, allowing it to be tailored to specific spatial conditions. This modularity makes it suitable for rooms with non-standard dimensions as well as bespoke residential projects where precision fit is essential.
Why choose a sliding door wardrobe over a hinged door system?
Sliding doors eliminate the swing clearance that hinged doors require, which is a practical advantage in tighter bedrooms, dressing rooms, and corridors. The Porro Sliding system also keeps the facade visually flat and continuous, so the wardrobe reads as a surface within the room rather than a freestanding object that competes with it.
What is Porro's design philosophy for storage systems?
Porro, the Italian furniture manufacturer founded in Brianza, treats storage as an integral part of interior architecture rather than an accessory to it. Their systems are developed with long production runs and genuine material depth, collaborating with designers like Piero Lissoni to ensure that each piece holds its formal integrity across a range of spatial contexts.
