Story
Glass that carries the load
The sideboard draft by EOOS seemed too ambitious to build, with no rear panel, a great deal of glass and doors that open 180 degrees. The Walter Knoll development team created door fittings and an adhesive for the temperature differences between aluminium and glass, and the glass itself became the load-bearing element.
A furniture piece with many faces
The Farns Sideboard Low is made for countless lighting moods.
