MERICA | michele santomarco

Merica is a movable wardrobe with a retro twist, inspired by travel trunks belonging to transatlantic passengers traveling to the New World.

A wardrobe as charming as a voyage, as the unknown, as a better-life promise, that carries your dearest things, stored as if it were a treasure trunk. At the same time, it’s modern and responds to the changing needs of contemporary living.
TThe closet is made of plywood completely upholstered with eco-friendly cotton fabric. It has two compartments equipped with shelves and hanging rail, a tubular structure with three rotating wheels on each side, two of which are self-stopping.
In the bedroom, as well as wardrobe, if left open, it turns to room divider to dress. In the entry hall is perfect as a hanger, or placed in the living room as storage unit to bring its vintage glamour.

Merica is more than a furniture element: it is a story, a design piece that requires and deserves to be the center of attention.
