The Fariba Side­board by Philipp Mainzer for e15 is a testa­ment to the art of preci­sion crafts­man­ship, embody­ing both sculp­tural beauty and func­tional sophis­ti­ca­tion. Designed in 2002, this iconic piece is part of an elegant series of storage solu­tions that cele­brate the natural grandeur of solid wood. Through metic­u­lous atten­tion to the wood’s organic grain and stri­a­tions, Fariba trans­forms into more than just a side­board — it becomes a focal point of refined interior design.

Expertly crafted from ¾‑inch thick solid Euro­pean oak or walnut, Fariba is engi­neered for both stabil­ity and seam­less aesthet­ics. Its two or three front panel doors conceal a precisely struc­tured storage system, featur­ing thought­fully arranged compart­ments. Behind these sleek, handle-free doors, milled grooves and hidden aluminum strips provide unwa­ver­ing support, elim­i­nat­ing the need for visible framing while main­tain­ing a flaw­less façade. Inside, a combi­na­tion of spacious and compact storage sections — each enhanced with a shelf — ensures both utility and elegance.

Comple­ment­ing the rich­ness of its wood compo­si­tion, the side­board is elevated by a mini­mal­ist recti­lin­ear base frame in ¾‑inch squared tubular brushed stain­less steel, master­fully mitered at 45-degree angles to create a refined geometric presence.

Avail­able in two sizes and a choice of north­ern Euro­pean oiled oak or walnut, the Fariba Side­board is a time­less expres­sion of modern luxury — effort­lessly blend­ing form, func­tion, and enduring craftsmanship.
