Tibeau Drawer Unit

Overview

Tibeau is a bedside table by GamFratesi for Molteni&C, listed on the company's site under drawer units. The page describes a strong, compact form with a clear material focus: wood is the central element and shapes both the structure and the visual identity of the piece.

Construction

Molteni&C says every element is resolved through carving, thickness and proportion rather than applied detail. The page names a sculpted T-shaped silhouette, inspired by the bed of the same name, with rounded and curved lines softening a brutalist clarity. The page's technical drawings are titled TCD1 and TCD2.

Specifications

• TCD2: 852 x 502 x 423 mm (axes not labelled on the drawing)
• TCD1: 502 x 502 x 423 mm (axes not labelled on the drawing)

The T from the bed

Molteni&C says the defining feature of Tibeau is the sculpted T-shaped silhouette, inspired by the Tibeau bed designed by GamFratesi. The shape introduces a brutalist clarity softened by rounded and curved lines, keeping the table visually strong while holding continuity with the profile of the bed.

A companion in the bedroom

The page describes the piece as a functional companion within the bedroom that balances solidity and refinement, a bedside element connecting past references with contemporary use. It adds that the table reflects the company's tradition of craftsmanship and material knowledge.
