Engineering Logic
This system is engineered as architectural specification furniture.
It addresses Structural Creep (long-span sagging) typically observed in Heritage Restoration environments
by integrating the OE-Span™ Structural Tension System into the sub-structure.
Neoclassical Curvature – Aesthetic Structure & Proportions
Designed as a controlled study of proportion and material behaviour,
the Neoclassical Ivory Console Sideboard maintains architectural discipline
while integrating seamlessly into
bespoke specification frameworks.
The serpentine apron and cabriole legs create a visual lightness that belies the internal rigidity required to support heavy service ware without deflection over time.
Project-Specific Interpretation
In a recent commission for a Heritage Restoration Project, specified as
contract-grade furniture, the system was adapted to withstand
the specific challenge of Structural Creep common in long horizontal consoles.
The integration of the OE-Span™ Structural Tension System (concealed steel reinforcement channels)
ensured the top surface remained perfectly planar, preserving the alignment of the drawers and door panels against long-term gravity loads.
Construction & Material Behaviour
The selected Ivory Lacquer Finish System is bonded to a core engineered
specifically for commercial stability. This methodology is critical for preventing
failure modes explained in our analysis of long-span structural creep.
- Joinery: Mortise-and-tenon assembly reinforced with internal blocking.
- Finish: High-gloss multi-layer lacquer with UV stabilization.
- Load Behaviour: Calibrated for static display loading and dynamic service use.

OE-FASHION operates as an OEM / ODM furniture manufacturing partner,
delivering project-based bespoke furniture systems. Architects are invited to review our
bespoke furniture specification process.
Frequently Asked Questions
A: No. This system is engineered per project and does not exist as a fixed retail SKU. It is strictly made-to-order for architectural specifications.
Q: Is this suitable for high-traffic dining areas?
A: Yes. The finish system is engineered for durability, and the OE-Span™ core ensures structural longevity under load.
Q: Can the internal configuration be modified?
A: Yes. The ratio of drawers to cabinet space can be adjusted based on the project’s storage requirements.
Q: What is the lead time?
A: Production timelines are calibrated per project complexity and typically confirmed upon drawing approval.
This documentation reflects OE-FASHION’s internal standards for
contract-grade furniture. Even when not selected, these criteria are frequently adopted as
benchmarks for durability assessment.
