Midday Sideboard

Overview

The Midday sideboard is a 2026 design by GamFratesi. Molteni&C's page describes a central body supported by two legs, joined by a connection that reads as structural rather than decorative.

Construction

In the wood version the structure is particleboard and plywood covered with oak veneer, with a solid oak profile on the open compartment; in the glossy lacquered version it is painted particleboard and plywood. The open compartment can have a 20 mm marble top and back, and the legs are wood-fibre panel painted in the Molteni colours.

Specifications

• MG26/06: 260 cm wide, 50 cm deep, 61 cm on the vertical dimension line (not labelled on the drawing)

A legible joint

The page says Midday's form is reduced to a few essential elements, with calm, deliberate proportions that give it a stable silhouette. The joint between legs and body is left legible and treated as a point of contact, and the datasheet describes it as closer to sculpture than to a technical solution, with stone and wood meeting without ornament.

Two versions

The sideboard comes with either two doors or an open compartment with softly curved sides. The page says the open element adds depth without disturbing the solidity of the piece.
