About the Item

The Bramante sideboard is an iconic sideboard designed in 1974 by Japanese architect and designer Kazuhide Takahama for the Italian company Simon Gavina. It is an emblematic piece from the Ultrarazionale collection, blending modern elements with classic and retro references. This design is known for its imposing architectural presence, clean, rigorous lines, and versatility, making it ideal for both domestic settings like living rooms and professional settings like offices or contract projects. The sideboard features a modular three-door composition, with a trapezoidal shape that lends a geometric and dynamic, almost sculptural appearance. Kazuhide Takahama, born in 1930 in Japan and moved to Italy in 1963 after meeting entrepreneur Dino Gavina, developed a minimalist style influenced by the dialogue between Eastern culture and European modernity. Bramante, initially produced by Simon Gavina in the 1970s, is a timeless classic that epitomizes the excellence of Italian design.
