ÆTHER/MASS
The Exposure Cabinet is a tall cabinet made from solid oak, raised on four slender legs. The proportions emphasize verticality and balance, giving the object a light presence despite its solid construction.
The front panels are integrated into the structure and remain permanently open. Rather than functioning as doors, they act as fixed elements that define the cabinet’s opening and interior.
By removing the ability to close the cabinet, storage is kept visible and accessible. The object is reduced to its essential components, focusing on structure, proportion, and material rather than mechanism.
