‘Pivot’ is the result of an exploration of movement and gravity based on the mechanism of traditional sewing boxes and toolboxes. The piece is a wall cabinet built on tall legs with two drawers that hinge rather than slide making it possible to open both drawers at the same time.
Imagined as an entrance piece, Pivot is ideal for storing small items and everyday necessities : the full opening of the drawers enables you to quickly run through their content.
‘Pivot’ was manufactured by Arco, one of Europe’s leading table manufacturers with a heritage of cabinet & sewing boxes making. Arco introduced Pivot in Cologne January 2008 as our first design to be produced. The desk and dressing table versions were introduced later in 2011- they have shorter legs and either a deeper table top or recess for a mirror along the back.
