Since founding his studio in 2009, Milanese designer Giacomo Moor has been exploring the creative possibilities offered by working with wood and collaborating with Italy’s leading craftspeople. One key piece was his ‘Kit del Legnamè’, a beautifully crafted carpentry tool box in olive and Italian walnut wood, for which he won a 2017 Wallpaper* Award.
Having created ‘Railway’, a series of minimalist metal and wood sideboards, for Living Divani last year, Moor has now turned his attention to a similarly pared-back bedside table design for the family-owned company. The ‘Halfsquare’ tables alternate open shelves with drawers that slot into light metal frames, built with triangular vertical uprights. The triangular sections are reflected in the back of the drawer fronts, their slanted sides creating hidden handles.
