Type: Kitchen with peninsula table and WIC (Walk in Closet)

Teak NTF wood is the main player of this project thanks to original manufacture and use on the vertical wood panelled walls to highlight the accessorised wall and open wall units and as the main material for the Era big peninsula table.‎ In the centre, the work area: thick marble worktop with recess, elegant Convivium doors and accessorised back panel with Mensolinea Shelf and Mensoluce Shelf.‎ These exclusive Arclinea shelves are a concentrated fusion of different functions, from a system of spotlights to fume extraction through to orderly storage for small everyday objects.‎Refined materials, attention to detail, sophisticated colourways and consistency of form: these are the characteristics of a kitchen with a traditional layout but featuring unique, exclusive design elements.‎ The back panel is in fabulous, refined polished Portoro marble, as is the 20 cm thick worktop with drip guard, complete with induction hob, black PVD stainless steel sink, sliding walnut wood chopping board and PaperStone® grids.‎ Convivium Elegant Door in black Fenix NTM®, black internal drawers with black fronts.‎ The WIC (Walk-In-Closet) is a real closet area with space for storage, pantry and laundry and the ‘walk through’ version gives access to more private areas in the home.‎ Convivium is an open space, a kitchen as an agile organised area, where being together becomes something to share anew every day, a place where a whole series of concrete actions – storing, preparing, cooking – are turned into rituals and emotions.‎ Aromas in the kitchen tell of familiar tales or distant places, old recipes are handed down and new ones experimented and most importantly, everyone eats together around the big table.‎
