In 1993, the Swiss designer Peter Pfister, together with the company Wendel, designed the practical "Torno" rotating cabinet. The cabinet is an example of sustainable design and social responsibility. It is made of recycled cardboard and was produced by the Turning Point Foundation. The Swiss organization supports people who have difficulties gaining a foothold in the job market. Inside the cabinet there are three screwed shelves made of raw MDF (medium density fiberboard). Handles made of stained spruce wood. The cardboard parts are painted gray. The Torno cabinet is in perfect condition. Height 180cm.
