Natural Wood | Artisan Style Kitchen Designs | Open Space Marble Countertops

For this new project by Antonio Citterio, Arclinea starts with the essence of wood, with the basic principles of the kitchen, reimagined: new steel technology and natural wood cutting resulting in a new door style. The extraordinary result is something absolutely original: a new direction for interior design, a new direction for kitchen furnishings, through unprecedented combinations of materials and colours.

Shown here, Principia combines a grained wood with a “rough” finish and stainless steel in the innovative colours generated with the PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) technological process. Natural materials, innovative production technologies, and artisan details dialogue with each other and contribute to the evolution of work zones. The resulting new units, dressers, and dedicated storage elements are then incorporated together to create a new kitchen with tremendous texture.

PRINCIPIA, CONVIVIUM

A modern kitchen that preserves all the pleasures of tradition, reworked with an aesthetic approach and a contemporary vision. This, in brief, is the warm Principia kitchen, characterized by the framed wooden door. A deliberate style choice teamed with technical finishes such as the black PVD steel on the island doors and the Double Shelf, and polished Nero Assoluto granite worktops with recess in the work areas, and glass wall unit doors. An Arclinea kitchen with an original layout, with a central island with Era snack bar top, and work area with accessorized back panel, glass-fronted wall units and tall elevation for storage and technical equipment.
