Slim Side Vertical Cabinet
Made by Henge
Designed by Massimo Castagna
Massimo Castagna approaches storage as architecture. The Slim Side Vertical Cabinet is a highboard distilled to its essential geometry: a tall, composed volume whose presence reads across a room without demanding attention.
The 2.5 cm plywood frame is coated in hand-finished metal, a process that introduces subtle tonal variation from piece to piece. No two cabinets are identical. Bronze glass lines the back panel and carries through to the interior shelving, casting a warm, reflective atmosphere when the doors are opened.
A 13 cm wooden base lifts the cabinet just enough to give the silhouette a quality of lightness, allowing the form to float above the floor plane. Interior configurations include:
- Bronze glass shelves throughout
- Shelves paired with an integrated wine glass holder
- LED interior lighting
Henge, founded in Milan, occupies a precise position between furniture and sculpture. Each piece is made to order, with finishes and proportions considered as a complete sensory whole.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Henge Slim Side Vertical Cabinet made from?
The cabinet is constructed from a 2.5 cm plywood frame coated in hand-finished metal, with bronze glass used for the back panel and interior shelving. The base is wooden, standing 13 cm tall to give the piece its characteristic lifted silhouette.
Is the Henge Slim Side Vertical Cabinet made to order?
Yes. Like all Henge pieces, the Slim Side Vertical Cabinet is made to order, allowing for selection of finishes and interior configurations. Lead times reflect the hand-finishing process carried out in Italy.
Who is Massimo Castagna and what is his design philosophy?
Massimo Castagna is a Milan-based designer and the creative director of Henge. His work is grounded in architectural restraint, treating furniture as spatial objects defined by proportion, materiality, and the quality of light they produce.
What interior configurations are available for this cabinet?
The interior can be configured with bronze glass shelves, shelves combined with an integrated wine glass holder, and optional LED interior lighting. These options are specified at the time of order.
How does the hand-finished metal exterior vary between pieces?
The hand-finishing process means each cabinet carries its own subtle tonal variation in the metal coating. This is an intentional characteristic of Henge's production, giving each piece a distinct, artisanal identity rather than a uniform industrial surface.
