Detail
Nelson Open Cabinet with Drawer by Herman Miller designed by George Nelson At A Glance: The Nelson Basic Cabinet Series includes this beautiful, precise little cabinet with one drawer - the perfect place to stash mail, keys, or those sunglasses youre forever losing track of just when you need them. A flexible element of the Basic Cabinet Series, this piece can be mounted on the Platform Bench or given black-stained wood legs to stand on its own. Similar to the aesthetic of some of George Nelsons other work, the cabinets in this series draw on some of his influences in Japanese design, and the wood legs express that style. Choose from rift-sawn natural oak or light brown walnut veneers to suit your taste. George Nelsons vision was a living space full of things that had purpose and place but were flexible enough to change. In 1955 he stated, People today no longer inhabit large houses with large rooms ... furniture has to fit these new dimensions comfortably and gracefully. Moreover, it has to be flexible. He created the Basic Cabinet Series in that spirit, and it has now been re-introduced by Herman Miller after being out of production since 1958. Whats To Like: The simple, Japanese-inspired lines of this cabinet give it a serene presence in your home - unlike furniture with more ornamentation, its able to blend in anywhere you place it. The only time itll draw attention to itself is when you use it; thats when youll notice how well-crafted it is. Whats Not to Like: Almost $800 bucks for a cabinet seems a bit much to us, but if youre looking for Mid-Century Modern, the alternatives out there dont get much cheaper. The Bottom Line: The Nelson Basic Cabinet Series simply reminds us that less is more, and that Herman Miller makes some of the finest furniture out there. Despite its price, the Nelson Open Cabinet with Drawer is no exception. Its versatile, sturdy, and built to heirloom-quality standards.
