Description
The Tucroma series represents one of Guido Faleschini’s most iconic projects, celebrated for its ability to combine architectural rigor, unconventional materials, and technological details within an extremely elegant and recognizable language.
In this version, the sideboard acquires an even rarer and more refined character thanks to the use of green cloth entirely covering the external structure, a highly unusual material choice that transforms the piece into both a tactile and visual object.
The intense green surface creates a striking contrast with the large smoked glass doors and the polished chromed steel profiles, generating a sophisticated balance between material softness and geometric precision.
Design & Function
The smoked glass doors, elegantly reflective and almost mirrored, visually lighten the monolithic volume of the piece and give the composition a strongly architectural aesthetic, recalling the most sophisticated executive interiors of the 1970s between Milan, New York, and London.
The interior, also finished in green tones with glass shelves, reveals an extremely high construction quality and remarkable attention to detail and chromatic coherence.
The sequence of six drawers on the left side, upholstered in taupe suede leather, contributes to the refined interplay of textures and tones characteristic of Guido Faleschini’s research and the most important i4 Mariani productions of the period.
Materials & Aesthetic
The upper top in veined red marble adds further visual depth and preciousness to the composition, introducing an almost sculptural dimension that dialogues beautifully with the modernist clarity of the structure.
What makes this sideboard particularly interesting is the dialogue between apparently opposite materials: the warm softness of the cloth contrasts with the technical coldness of chromed steel and the dark depth of smoked glass, while the red marble introduces a strong organic and decorative presence.
The result is a highly scenographic yet rigorous piece, still appearing remarkably contemporary today.
