An undisputed icon of 1960s and 70s radical design, the Boby Trolley by Joe Colombo is much more than a piece of furniture—it is a masterclass in dynamic, modular engineering. Conceived by Colombo in 1970 and manufactured by Bieffeplast, this rotating storage system revolutionized domestic and professional workspaces by replacing static cabinetry with flexible, mobile architecture.
Awarded first prize at the SMAU in 1971 and permanently inducted into the collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, the Boby embodies the space-age ethos of functional futurism. Featuring swinging compartments, open shelf niches, and sliding drawers crafted from robust ABS plastic, it seamlessly merges sculptural aesthetics with uncompromising utility.
This specific low version, finished in an elegant off-white hue, features the authentic signatures of both brand and designer molded into the structure. Whether used as a bedside companion, studio organizer, or a statement piece in a modern interior, it represents a foundational milestone of Italian industrial heritage.
