Classic and modern-day design collide in Maak Creativity's DUO Cabinet. The DUO Cabinet combines old and new aesthetics to create a storage space that is neither old nor new.
The DUO Cabinet is caught somewhere in the middle, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Combining old and new ideas usually results in a one-off work that isn't very functional, but the DUO Cabinet has the potential to be more than just a novelty item.
There's a lot of mileage to be had out of a cabinet with a big storage space and drawers. Not to mention the fact that the DUO Cabinet is an instant conversation starter.
