About Orb Credenza
La credenza Orb fonde l'eleganza Art Déco con influenze architettoniche bizantine, traendo ispirazione dall'antico Ippodromo Romano di Istanbul. La sua forma simmetrica, le curve aerodinamiche e le porte laterali circolari massimizzano lo spazio mantenendo un'estetica raffinata. Realizzata in legno modellato a mano con finiture laccate, interni impiallacciati e superfici tagliate con precisione, Orb integra un sistema di cerniere personalizzato per una funzionalità impeccabile. Gli accenti dorati ne esaltano il fascino lussuoso, incarnando l'influenza storica nel design contemporaneo.

- Research
- The design process of Orb began with an in-depth study of the structural elements of the Ancient Roman Hippodrome and Byzantine architecture. By analyzing circular and linear forms, a balance was created to adapt these influences into contemporary furniture design. The selected materials harmonize historical inspiration with modern functionality.
- Inspiration
- Orb is inspired by the Ancient Roman Hippodrome. Built in the 3rd century AD on the site of present day Istanbul, this architectural marvel was a major gathering place for society, hosting chariot races and major events. The large-scale circular and linear elements of the Hippodrome influenced Orb’s design language. Its balanced form reflects a historic heritage within contemporary interiors.
- Project Duration
- Designed in Istanbul, where it was inspired, and manufactured in Ankara, the Orb sideboard was completed in 2023.
- Operation Flow
- Orb provides a unique opening experience with its specially designed hinge system.
