Seven drawers, no handles: the Ginza Tower that stands beside the Codutti conference table
Every boardroom needs a place for what is not on the table, and most collections leave that problem to a cabinet from another catalogue. Ginza answers it with the Tower: a chest 60 × 60 cm at the base and 145 cm tall, with seven drawers stacked one above the other and no handles, because the fronts open by pressure — push-pull, in Codutti's words. It is built with the same structural panels as the table, so the drawer fronts can be lacquered under a top of Roman travertine, or the whole piece can be one material, and it stands against the wall like a column rather than a cupboard.
Around it the collection stays consistent: the conference table of 240 × 90 × 74 cm, a round table of 120 cm at a lower 70 cm, two coffee tables at 40 cm, all with the rounded edges that Barbieri Magalini chose as the signature of a design «inspired by Japanese rationalism». Codutti places the Tower in offices and in homes alike. For Indian corporate floors, where a boardroom often doubles as the chairman's meeting space, La Mercanti proposes the Tower in pairs, one either side of the Codutti table, and marks on the plan which drawers hold the presentation kit and which the tea service.
