Aurum – Gold Leaf Cabinet 120 Storage by Peca Mobiliario
Handcrafted using traditional techniques, the Aurum Cabinets highlight the artistry and precision of contemporary furniture design. Made from sandblasted wood and finished with 23-carat gold leaf, each piece reflects the dialogue between nature and light.
Atelier Nuand’s Plĭco collection can act as a quiet anchor in a busy space, proving that minimalism doesn’t have to feel cold or impersonal. Instead, it sets a foundation for calm and order.
Curio Cabinets and the Art of Display
The curio cabinet has evolved from Victorian relic to modern design icon. Once filled with heirlooms and curiosities, today’s interpretations are sculptural, modular, and expressive—more art object than furniture.
These contemporary cabinets may not even have glass doors or symmetrical forms. Instead, they echo the energy of display through structure, material, and mood. They invite curiosity and reflection, becoming living archives of personal history.
Curator’s note: A curio cabinet is never finished—it evolves as your story does.
Cabinets Across Rooms and Styles
A sculptural cabinet can ground a space, especially when paired with modern lounge chairs and table lamps. Choose a low, linear silhouette to keep the eye flowing through the room.
A lacquered or marble-topped cabinet doubles as a sideboard, storing dinnerware and creating a stage for ceramics or statement lighting.
Opt for a smaller cabinet that serves as both bedside companion and archive. Natural materials and rounded edges lend calm.
A narrow cabinet creates a welcoming rhythm, offering storage for essentials while showcasing personal objects that set the tone for your home.
Choose modular designs with shelving or concealed drawers for balance between practicality and visual harmony.
Practical takeaway: Repetition of material—like matching cabinet handles to lighting finishes—creates cohesion across spaces.
Designer Craftsmanship and Cultural Perspective
At ADORNO, we collaborate with designers whose work unites craftsmanship and concept. Each cabinet tells a story of place and process—whether it’s a cabinet built from reclaimed lobster traps off the coast of Maine, or one inspired by the weaving traditions of the Jequitinhonha Valley in Brazil.
Many of these pieces challenge expectations of form and function. The Natrix Natrix Bar Cabinet, for example, uses perforated aluminum mesh to evoke snake skin—balancing visibility and concealment, sculpture and storage. Others, like Nina Coimbra’s Orí Shelf, reinterpret spiritual symbolism through handcrafted wood and natural materials.
Reflective takeaway: To collect a cabinet is to collect a worldview—each one a dialogue between the maker’s vision and your own way of living.
Sustainability and Longevity in Design
In an era of disposability, the cabinet remains a testament to permanence. ADORNO’s designers embrace low-impact production and renewable materials—whether through reclaimed woods, recycled metals, or modular components that can be repaired and reassembled over time.
This approach aligns with a broader shift toward slow design—furniture built not for seasons, but for generations. Explore more in our editorial Objects of Affection: Sustainability & Our Relationships with Material Possessions.
Curator’s insight: Sustainability isn’t a feature—it’s a mindset, one embedded in how a piece is made, maintained, and loved over time.
Why Collectible Cabinets Matter
Mass-market storage furniture often prioritizes cost and convenience over craftsmanship. Collectible cabinets, by contrast, are built to endure and evolve. They embody the philosophy of functional art—pieces that serve a purpose yet carry the weight of creative intent.
At ADORNO, we select cabinets not only for their utility but for their presence. Each one is a meeting point between artistry and daily life.
Reflective close: A cabinet doesn’t just organize a room—it frames your way of seeing.
