Interiors. Black Sugi is the dark and enveloping finish, extremely sophisticated, at the same time ancient and modern chosen for Storage system of wardrobes and dressing room. Combined with a black painted metal structure, it offers a matte black-ink surface with marked veins, inspired by the ancient Japanese technique of Sou Sugi Ban, which protected the cedar wood by burning it with coal.
Lightness. With its slim upright, the Japanese-style black sugi equipment and the embedded lighting, Storage is a complete and versatile wardrobe system. The traditional 25x45mm upright was replaced by the new 25x25mm profile in order to further increase the aerial sensation of extreme lightness: a technical evolution in the name of utmost visual cleanliness that makes Porro wardrobe experience even more intense and exciting.
Light. The light embedded in the shelf enhances the graphic design of Storage and follows its lines, transforming it into a stage for one’s own garments. Thanks to the wireless lighting system, electricity is transmitted inside the structure, hidden from view. With all technical details designed by Porro and fully embedded, the shelves become lighting fixtures and the light can be adjusted by choosing between 2 different temperatures.
Architecture. Storage designs the space with an interplay of full and empty compartments, creating an extremely elegant atmosphere that combines the transparent wardrobe with the shoe rack with bent enlightened shelves.
Care for details. The transparent wardrobe is combined with the hinged Storage wardrobe featuring Piana doors in heat-treated oak and the Oslo handle, entirely made of wood with an exquisite workmanship that enhances its visual cleanliness.
Organization of the interiors. In the detailed view, angled shoe rack with the possibility of placing two rows of shoes on the same shelf. A series of containers of different shapes and types – necklace holders, eyeglass holders, belt and watch holders – allows to organize and store valuable accessories in the drawers. Alcantara grigio chiaro perfectly blends with black sugi interiors, along with the other available finishes –testa di moro, tortora and kaki– that match the different wardrobe interior designs.
Personalization. The shoe rack with lighted angled shelves and shoe stoppers, embedded in a niche: the quintessence of Porro’s tailoring skills and of its ability to create bespoke solutions for every space. Highly technological and complex but ultra-flexible system, Storage is produced every time on design. It is the design of each order that generates the production process, thanks to a sophisticated design program with over 25,000 codes. Each Storage composition, custom-designed, is identified through a special "identity card", which traces the production cycle and is delivered to the final customer, more and more aware and involved in the whole process.
Sustainable thinking. All Porro’s systems, including Storage, are produced with a new avant-garde production plant, which has replaced the production of panels in standard sizes with just-in-time custom-made panels. Among the effects of the new plant there are objectives that have always been present in the history of the brand, such as the replacement of the modularity in favor of freedom of composition, the increase in quality in the cutting and coating of the panels, the production optimization with the reduction of waste and the elimination of warehouse stocks, according to a lean approach of sustainable growth.
Integration with Glide doors. With their clean yet materially rich design, Glide doors integrate perfectly into the Storage closet project, lightly defining a new architecture of space where traditional spaces are expanded and reshaped in a new way.
