Organizing the kitchen according to the functions of use and arranging them so that the workflows are as orderly as possible: this fundamental principle is respected at the basis of the Arclinea project. Thus, in line with the concepts that feature each model, the elements that compose them are arranged in such a way as to optimize the movements and to better manage the various stages of food preparation.

Like the professional kitchens, which is openly inspired to, Italia allows to create a rational environment and manage the preparation of dishes in the most efficient way. Just like in a restaurant, those who cook have quick access to ingredients and equipment and do not overlap with those engaged in other functions. In a saving of gestures and movements, the so-called working triangle - cooking, washing, preserving - promotes teamwork. Starting from the layout of the "cold area", the one intended for the refrigeration and conservation of the ingredients, to the thermal one, the heart of the kitchen, ideally positioned in the center of the space. With two well apart sinks, the project also guarantees the best washing process, the ingredients first and the dishes then, ensuring maximum performance.

Cooking becomes a convivial experience in the Lignum et Lapis project. At the center of the space is an island-sculpture, a monolithic shape in stone or steel, which concentrates the preparation of food and the art of hosting. In the background, a boiserie-wall, perfectly integrated into the space, hides a practical and fully equipped operational compartment. As in a sort of domestic theatre, the first steps of preparation and washing take place behind the scenes, while the cooking show is staged on the sculpture-island, facing the audience. Well-calibrated workflows connect the operational areas equipped with refrigerators, ovens and sinks to each other and optimize the passages towards the island, where the preparations are completed, finished, and finally enjoyed.

Designed for everyday life, Convivium offers a contemporary interpretation of the rituals of the past, when the daily activity of cooking was at the center of home life and the family used to gather at the table. Conceived for today’s needs, the project includes a functional island that extends into a table, completed by a large separate closet - technical area and pantry together - and a display cabinet cellar. The result is a convivial space, a synthesis of different cultures and eras, that goes beyond the idea of separation between kitchen and dining room. An open and welcoming place, where everything flows at its best to foster relationships between people. Here the movements to and from the closet become functional to the pleasure of cooking for themselves and for others on the island-table, mixing the preparation and the tasting of dishes with the stories of the day, the experiences of everyday life with the pleasure of a good glass of wine.
