@Home 04 less is more
@Home 04
The @home cube is characterised by an alternating game of full and empty spaces that define the environments with spaces and volumes. In the background are the storage tall units, which house the technological components. The appealing tranché oak finishing the superficial mark of the tool used to process wood is left intentionally visible.
The storage cabinets system with receding doors, available in two different heights, furnishes the kitchen area while offering lots of space for storage and tidiness. When open, the concealing doors reveal a large internal space that can be accessorised to taste. This is an arrangement system truly designed to create washing and cooking areas, larders, and storage space for small appliances.
The highly decorative architectonic islands are created by matching “close end” modules, with 64 cm high drawers and baskets, with an open end module made in thin steel and comprehensive, half-way in depth, of a vertical transparent glass. On these elements lay block-plates that can be made in steel or other material, to be customised according to their final function: washing and/or cooking. Upon request, it comes with a steel-finishing coated cover.
There are many customisation options to choose from for the storage cabinets thanks to the available equipment. From the simplest solutions, that comprise only larder/oven tall units, to more elaborate ones, that include base units, wall cabinets, doors and wall panels.
With @home the kitchen area intimately interweaves with the living one, in search for complemented design project. The kitchen is an open space, that looks at the living area and follows its style: terminal elements are inserted in the tall unit thanks to which spaces and functions combine. These shelves are created to display not only books, but also decor objects, bottles, accessories.
