R&D Poliform

The Poliform Night Collection catalogue lists Ubik as a design of R&D Poliform; no individual designer is credited. The Night Systems technical catalogue introduces it as an evolved and light walk-in closet that offers flexibility and functionality at the same time.

Panels that set the style

Poliform says the panel finishes define the aesthetic style of the closet: the classic version with wood laminate panelling, a sophisticated version in glass, and fabric-effect and technocover variants. The rack system is offered in two optional metal finishes on the page, slate and champagne.
