About the Item
A modular sideboard in teak wood and metal with integrated desk surface, featuring drawers and sliding doors upholstered in red fabric and lacquered finishes. Italian production by "Home Collection Turin", design by Franco Campo and Carlo Graffi, 1950s.
Clean, elegant, and understated, this Italian sideboard from the 1950s exemplifies the distinctive aesthetic of the Home brand. The design emphasizes horizontal lines, with surfaces and sides highlighting the natural beauty of teak wood grain, while the drawers and doors incorporate contrasting materials for added visual interest.
The first module stands out for its harmonious pairing of teak wood, red fabric-covered sliding doors, and black lacquered finishes. It brings a refined yet discreet touch of color to its surroundings. The second module is a chest of drawers with five compartments, distinguished by its black lacquered surfaces and white recessed grooves, which serve as functional handles. An integrated desk surface adds versatility, transforming the piece into a multifunctional composition with endless configuration possibilities.
Both modules are elevated on slender metal legs, which enhance the overall lightness and sophistication of the design—characteristics that define the Home brand. This evocative name, synonymous with domestic warmth and familial intimacy, was created by two Turin-based designers. In the 1950s, Campo and Graffi introduced Nordic-inspired aesthetics—known in Italy as "lo Stile Svedese"—to a country still hesitant to embrace modernity. Their designs conveyed a vision of internationalism and accessibility, bringing together elegance and democratic ideals.
The Home brand achieved consistent success, winning awards and recognition. However, its journey came to an abrupt end in 1964 when a catastrophic fire destroyed its warehouses, factory, and design offices. The damage was irreparable, and with it, the Home brand ceased to exist, taking its modernist vision with it. That same year also marked the end of Campo and Graffi's celebrated collaboration, as their names were no longer united by the "&" that symbolized one of the most significant partnerships in Italian design history.
To own a piece by Campo and Graffi today is to safeguard a rich tradition and celebrate the timeless appeal of historic design that continues to inspire.
