Kendo
Kendo is a sideboard with unusual geometric doors: each one has a 30° cut that divides it into two parts that are not perfectly coplanar but instead slightly out of alignment, lending the surface a sophisticated light and shade effect.Kendo comes in laminate, Fashion Wood and lacquered finishes.Kendo is also available with doors, frame and top in different finishes or colours.
Kendo is very customisable: there are more than a hundred materials to choose from to make your sideboard. Being able to combine two different finishes for the carcass and the fronts widens the possibilities with Kendo, making it the perfect sideboard for any living area or dining room.

The inspiration
Essence of Japanese culture
Kendo is a family of sideboards with a brilliant, rational and technically refined design. Through its design Kendo wants to suggest the essence of Japanese culture, taking inspiration from martial arts and especially sword ritual. The concept of the cut clearly identifies the focus of the collection, that is a clean 30° laceration on the front, from which spring two doors that are slightly out of alignment; these are the heart and soul of the collection.
