A spacious and well-designed kitchen space offers an original interpretation of Principia, the model conceived by Antonio Citterio in 2016, renowned as one of the defining pieces within the Arclinea collection. The layout defines a set of distinct functional areas, closely related to each other. The peculiar wooden door with its refined crafted slatted design is the absolute protagonist of the space and helps to determine its warm and welcoming atmosphere. Additionally, a large, illuminated glass display wall unit hanging on the back wall adds to the beauty of the space.

PRINCIPIA, OPERATIONAL AREA

The special operational area features a C-shaped layout, further enhanced by a bright window in the middle, ensures maximum practicality and an exceptional user experience, while creating a seamless separation from the dining area. The linear work bases, equipped with induction hob and double sink, extend along the wall, continuing under the window, and facing the dining area, equipped with a convenient Era snack. According to an overall harmony of colors and materials, the Principia slatted door in the Fossil Oak NTF finish delicately matches the refined Absolute White matt quartz countertop, while also elegantly contrasting with the sophisticated Brushed Bronze aluminum and Trama Bronze glass finish of the display wall units, where the extractor hood is concealed.

A large storage wall system develops along the entire long side of the room, fulfilling different functions. In the operational area, it accommodates the ovens and features a full-height Frame System door, providing access to the “wet kitchen”, the service area where the actual food processing takes place, to support the preparations. A display unit featuring double Trama Bronze glass doors with brushed bronze frames echoes the large, hanging element, interrupting and enriching the long wall, made of storage modules and integrated doors.

Opposite boiserie walls define the dining area, where the large square Era System table dominates the scene. On the side, the cellar space equipped with Vina elements of the Arclinea Duet Collection as an ideal place for storing bottles, is hidden by the double Frame System door integrated into the wall and specifically positioned for the convenience of diners.
