Mario Botta

Robot is a drawer unit respecting its original project, conceived by architect Mario Botta in 1989. On the occasion of Milan Salone del Mobile 2023 it returns as part of Alias collection. Characterised by overlapping of drawers, connected to each other thanks to a metallic supporting structure, Robot looks like a column. Its superior part can be opened and become a writing desk. With its ash solid wood with coloured stain finish and a black steel lacquered structure, Robot represents the idea of an object which doesn’t have a predefined shape equivalent to a sequence of drawers one on top of each other. It may acquire a variety of shapes when you take out some or all of its drawers in various combinations thanks to a smart game of decompositions.
