Storage as architecture
Molteni&C says Dordoni designed 606 to turn storage into a subtle architectural element, with finishes and materials balanced so that a unit suits classic and contemporary rooms alike.

Two bases
The page distinguishes a floor-standing base, which it ties to solidity, from a slender metal base that draws attention to the geometry of the drawers.
