A perfect balance between functionality and elegance, the Akeru sideboard was born from the desire to highlight those sections of the product that usually remain more hidden due to design choices. Available in the traditional version and as a TV stand, the Akeru sideboard always features a Canaletta walnut structure and a marble top to maximise the elegance of the product. The central compartment is open and covered in marble or wood; this feature becomes the aesthetic key point of the product, an architectural detail that lends personality to the piece. The possibility of adding an extra-clear glass element further customises the organisation of space in the central compartment. On the side, the two wood doors conceal compartments fitted with glass shelves that complete the design of the product with a light and contemporary touch, creating a material contrast with the solidity and veining of the marble. In the TV stand variant, the top has a grommet hole that allows access to the lower compartment, equipped with a double bottom, which guarantees easy maintenance of the cabling; to facilitate storage operations, the back panel is removable.
