A client required an entertainment unit that would hold the TV, Stereo and all his CDs together with a display space to show off their treasures collected from around the world.

The result is the collaboration between myself and the client, using various timbers, veneers and colour samples. The unit is made in modules and the red gum top in two sections. This was necessary due to availability of materials, weight and locality (3rd floor apartment). All hardware is Blum(c) brand including the concealed hinges, full extension metal drawer runners and fold away doors for the television.
