Dice Hifi
Dice, the ultimate storage solution for hi-fi sound systems and LPs.
When we asked our designer Alexandre Dubreuil to come up with a modular storage system capable of housing our vinyl record collections, we couldn’t have imagined the result. He went above and beyond by creating a system featuring two modules, each with an internal height of 32 cm (12.5”, perfect for storing our precious LPs). […]

Monobloc
This is the monobloc collection, with a minimalist design of a single concrete block for functional use. It will effortlessly enhance your decoration with a touch of raw, industrial and modernist design.
The world of furniture is constantly evolving, offering design enthusiasts a plethora of choices to transform their interiors. If you’re looking for something unique, stylish, and robust for your TV stand, look no further than concrete. Yes, concrete, that sturdy material often associated with construction, can be the key to creating a TV stand that is both functional and aesthetically impressive.
Concrete is a material that embodies elegance in its simplicity. Its smooth and raw surface gives it a modern aesthetic that can easily blend into any interior decor style. Whether you have a minimalist interior or prefer a more eclectic style, a concrete TV stand can harmoniously fit into your space.
A concrete TV stand is synonymous with durability. Unlike many other materials, concrete, if cared for minimally, does not easily crack, warp over time, and resists scratches and impacts. This means that your concrete TV stand is a long-term investment that will remain in excellent condition for years, even decades.
One of the primary concerns when buying a TV stand is stability. Concrete is naturally heavy and solid, making it an ideal choice for a piece of furniture that needs to support the weight of your television, electronic devices, and sometimes even decorative items. You will never have to worry about the stability of your concrete TV stand. However, refrain from dancing salsa on top of it.
Concrete is also a highly adaptable material for integrating electronic devices into your TV stand. All our TV and Hi-Fi furniture solutions lack a back panel, making it easy to pass cables and accommodate your gaming consoles, Blu-ray players, TV decoders, amplifiers, soundbars, and much more. This helps maintain a clean and organized look in your entertainment area.
Concrete also offers notable acoustic advantages due to its exceptional density. This particular feature, combined with the rubber connectors from our Dice collection, limits the propagation of sound vibrations, making it an ideal solution for creating TV stands. When you place your television, speakers, soundbar, and other audio devices on a concrete TV stand, you benefit from better acoustics. Sound vibrations generated by the speakers are absorbed thanks to the weight of the concrete and the flexibility of the rubber, reducing unwanted resonance and enhancing the overall sound quality of your audio system. This creates a more immersive viewing and listening experience, allowing you to enjoy your entertainment.
One often overlooked advantage of concrete is its resistance to heat and stains. Electronic devices tend to generate heat, which can cause stains or deformations on certain materials. With concrete, these issues won’t occur. Furthermore, all our furniture is factory-treated with an anti-stain solution. You don’t have to worry about marks from hot glass or spilled liquids, making it an ideal choice for a TV stand in a lively living room. It’s also easy to dust.
Unlike some materials that require constant maintenance to stay in good condition, a concrete TV stand is easy to maintain. Regular cleaning with soapy water is usually sufficient to keep it in perfect condition.
Concrete seamlessly blends into various interior decor styles. Whether you have a contemporary, industrial, Scandinavian, or even rustic interior, a concrete TV stand can contribute to the overall ambiance. Opt for our monobloc TV stand for a more minimalist and streamlined style or choose our Dice collection, inspired by Charlotte Perriand’s modernist shelves, combining light oak with concrete.
In the end, a concrete TV stand is a worthwhile investment. Not only does it offer a unique and timeless aesthetic, but it’s also designed to last, meaning you won’t have to replace it frequently as is often the case with lower-quality furniture.
In conclusion, concrete is more than just a construction material. It can bring a touch of raw elegance to your living space as a TV stand. Its durability and contemporary look make it a top choice for those looking to marry form and function in their interior decor. So why not opt for a concrete TV stand and add a touch of timeless modernity to your living room?
