Ernest Igl for Wilhelm Werndl, cabinet, fiberglass, Germany, designed in 1970
A bright and modern cabinet designed by Ernest Igl for Wilhelm Werndl in the 1970s. This design truly resembles the ethos of the seventies – a bright and bold era – featuring the commonly used material of that time named fiberglass. Ernest Igl strived for the creation of a cabinet that focused on functionality combined with an aesthetically pleasing design for daily use. This is discernible in the playful composition of sturdy lines and round corners executed in the whole construction. For this outspoken layout the designer used a pure white color.

Taking every stylistic realization into account, this cabinet retro, without clashing with contemporary interiors.
