Inspiration
Ōbako is plantain brought indoors. A quiet strength — the kind that grows by stone and never asks permission. The deep green body sets the calm, and the botanical panel feels like a small window into living nature.
Materials & Finishes
Materials: MDF carcass and fronts with crisp CNC carving (clean lines, soft radii), finished in a deep green matte lacquer. The centre features a mirrored panel with a botanical artwork — a luminous focal point that also visually enlarges the room. Inside: warm dark-wood/walnut-toned lining with practical shelving for tableware, décor, or a bar setup.
Style: modern classic with a neo-Art-Deco edge — symmetry, elongated leaf-like reliefs, and the contrast of matte surfaces against reflective mirror. It reads as a calm statement piece, designed to sit beautifully between living and dining/kitchen zones.
