Furniture-Concealing Cabinets

The Ludovico by Claudio Sibille Harbors a Desk and Two Chairs

— December 24, 2011 — Art & Design
Although the chest dubbed Ludovico by Claudio Sibille may look like a regular piece of furniture, it actually takes some notes from the traditional Russian nesting dolls as it hides other pieces of furniture inside of it. What at first appears to be an innocent and simple cabinet is actually harboring some furniture fugitives including a table and a pair of chairs.

The Uruguayan designer were set on creating something that was both chic and sophisticated as well as practical and natural as well. Ludovico by Claudio Sibille is all of that and then some; every piece of it is made out of eucalyptus wood, while the cabinet itself boasts some aluminum handles. Perfect for small spaces, Ludovico by Claudio Sibille can be stowed away at a moment's notice when guests are expected to arrive.
