Tristano Sideboard by Maurizio Peregalli , industrial materials and the imperfections of metal

The Tristano Sideboard is a storage unit (dimensions 150 x 33 x H 82 cm) with a flap door. Designed by Maurzio Peregalli for Zeus,its minimalist language and formal purity enable it to relate to even the most classic furnishings. In keeping with the spirit of the brand, the furniture is made from industrial materials, bringing out the aesthetic and structural versatility of metal as well as its imperfections.

The structure is made of 10 x 10 mm solid drawn steel, while the two shelves are made of 2 mm thick sheet metal. The flap door is in expanded metal mesh, with a magnet catch, while with and the optional LED strip lighting it creates a graphic effect of transparency.

The sideboard is finished in epoxy powder in the two variants: black copper sablé or micaceous gray.
