DF 2000 Sideboard, Raymond Loewy for Doubinsky Frères, France, 1960s

Description The DF 2000 sideboard can be positioned against a wall or used to divide a space, thanks to its doors on both sides. This model includes multiple storage compartments with practical trays, fronted by moulded plastic panels in a colour scheme ranging from dark brown to a lighter grey-brown on both sides. The structure combines lacquered wood with a metal base, characteristic of the DF 2000 line’s blend of modernist materials. The DF 2000 collection reflects Loewy’s interest in modularity and futuristic aesthetics, making this sideboard a representative example of French modernist design from the period.     Origination: France, late 1960s.
