Tactile textures, sculptural aesthetics, geometric shapes, and precious materials come together in these exquisitely crafted kitchens, making them the most beautiful of 2024.
Zampieri Lodge IN
Inspired by the architectural theme of the loggia from which it takes its name, Zampieri’s new program is a sculptural kitchen with multiform and aerodynamic spatiality.
Created as an “architectural kitchen”, in perfect coherence with the context that surrounds it, Loggia is also a living room thanks to furniture that defines the two environments. It is characterized, in fact, by the design of well-defined “elements” capable of creating an aesthetic and operational division between the washing and preparation area and the area reserved for the living area. The distinctive feature is also revealed through the presence of geometric lines, developed horizontally and vertically which create a play of volumes between full and empty spaces.
The new open columns of the L16 system also fit into this framework, functional in creating equipped storage niches for practical and refined organization of the kitchen Loggia. Thanks to the trick of changing depth with the integration of furniture, it is possible to create an exclusive and personalized total living look.
The entire Loggia program, which includes the IN version for the interior and OUT for the exterior, is made with fine materials such as wood and stone, expertly crafted and combined with steel elements that emphasize the masterful meeting between matter and geometry.
Rastelli BOSCO kitchen
Combining solidity and lightness, light and shadow, Rastelli’s BOSCO tells a new perspective on how to live well in harmony with nature and with others.
Makio Hasuike & Co.‘s BOSCO, which was designed for Rastelli, is returning as the main character. The atmosphere of wooded freshness is still present even in the new 2024 composition, which was officially launched in 2022 on the Salone del Mobile, in Milan. This is the result of a deep study on the essence of nature and its positive impact on human well-being.
The design of this kitchen is influenced by Japanese inspiration, which is rooted in the ideogram Shinrin-yoku (literally “forest bath”) and transforms it into a peaceful and harmonious space within the house.
The Phantastic wardrobe keeps the iconic eucalyptus finishes of the previous composition. Equipped with a refrigerator column, an oven column and a modern open module with two drawers, Phantastic combines functionality and awareness. The top and backrest of the open cabinet are made of Corian 3 Silver Gray adding homogeneity to the thickness and resistance to the typical uses of the operating areas.
To distinguish BOSCO, its architecture: a full horizontal volume, a full vertical and a vertical slatted screen, create a harmonious fusion between form and function. Traditional bases, columns with retractable doors and open shelves with sliding panels have been carefully designed to enhance the clean aesthetics of the kitchen.
Like every wood, Makio Hasuike & Co.’s cuisine for Rastelli also keeps a secret: its ability to connect man with nature through the ingredients used in the preparation of food. The spaces dedicated to herbs, roots and plants, carefully hidden behind the open shelves, transform the kitchen into a shared laboratory.
The induction hob and the sink with retractable tap confirm that the BOSCO kitchen has been designed to meet the practical and aesthetic needs of its users. The top made of Corian® Silver Gray and the solid wood handles with eucalyptus veneer complete the modern and natural look of the composition.
SieMatic S2 Next Generation
If one wished to sum up the SieMatic brand in just a few succinct words, they would have to be: innovative, inspiring, fascinating.
The new SieMatic S2 generation unites in spectacular design the visible and invisible to create a new icon of quiet luxury, a sublime status symbol, which is far more than just the sum of its parts. In a magical interplay of interior and exterior, every detail tells a fascinating story of astounding beauty, functional marvels and meticulous craftsmanship.
With the flick of a wrist, closed pieces of furniture are transformed into decorative shelves, hobs are hidden below sliding countertops, appliances are stashed within elegant cabinets, or entire kitchen segments are concealed behind sliding folding doors.
Visible and invisible – the new SieMatic S2 maximises reduction to the essential. Rotating cabinet elements and flat drawers within S2 recess channels can be integrated invisibly, whereas the sophisticated combination of matt aluminium titanium, oak hazel brown, ceramic storm gris, fishbone tarsie veneer and contrasting velvet matt black for the recess channels, cabinets and plinths is just one example of an exciting and visible range of high-quality materials and carefully selected colours.
Kitchen lovers have new possibilities to create their own, unique living space with a restrained, elegant aesthetic which subtly accentuates the interior design without overemphasising the genius of its functionality.
Impexa Limited Edition Kitchen Suite TM Italia
The project represents TM Italia’s unceasing commitment to creative experimentation and the innovation of design languages.
TM Italia’s Culture of Uniqueness is not only the formula of evolved craftsmanship and compositional variety supported by a one-off industrial approach, but also its openness to design dialogue on themes of inspiration and high intellectual value.
The Limited Edition Kitchen Suite is 100% made in Italy. The Latin name for “disorder” evokes the breaking of patterns and the entropy that drives the organic evolution of natural ecosystems.
The design is pure, organic and dynamic. The internal structure of the three islands is made of ecological panels produced from recycled materials and wood fibres obtained from renewable sources certified PEFC, FSC and CARB-P2 (low chemical emissions).
The side and front panels are made of steel processed using jewellery techniques to obtain different surfaces and effects of light: two super-gloss finishes (dark gold and nickel tones, a tribute to the warm reflections of the sun), combined with a super-matt finish (brass tones, a tribute to the icy surfaces of icebergs).
The worktops are made of high-performance ceramics in a dark slate shade and a three-dimensional Vulcan effect surface, inspired by pristine solidified lava.
The cooking island integrates concealed induction technology, exploiting the technical characteristics of the ceramic material that allow electromagnetic transfer even in the absence of a glass cooktop. The washing island is equipped with a hand-assembled single-material sink using traditional stone-working techniques.
L’Ottocento Kitchen with Floral and Virtus island
The best of creativity and craftsmanship come together in impactful designs that embody a timeless spirit.
Among the new features, the space dedicated to the Floral panelling system with the new Virtus island, conceived from the collaboration with makethatstudio, enhances stylistic harmony through a skilful dialogue between different material and colour choices. The contrast becomes harmony, the styles blend, creating an alluring atmosphere, a synthesis between classic and contemporary.
The enveloping Floral walnut panelling expresses the superior work of high-level cabinet-making, a distinctive feature of L’Ottocento artisanal production. Made entirely of wood and with full height extension, Floral elegantly dresses the walls, revealing a sophisticated mood, with linear features.
Structured with internal compartments functional to operations in the kitchen, the panelling is divided into openable doors to house appliances, storage spaces and shelves. A measured play of contrasts stands out in the central part, once the retractable doors are opened: in this area dedicated to washing, vintage brushed steel is the protagonist, covering the splashback and walls, and applied in the top and wall units.
The new Virtus island completely in brushed vintage steel coordinates with the niche. With an elegant minimalist flavour, mitigated by a refined aesthetic cleanliness, it combines perfectly with the materiality of wood. It excels with its smooth squared door, with an original three-dimensional effect and with the brass profile which underlines its shapes, proving to be a useful handle to open doors and drawers. Also in steel, with the same finish, the top combines aesthetics and functionality, allowing practical use of the kitchen.
Finally, the geometry of the island is interrupted by two cylindrical bases which support the function of connections pass-through, giving lightness to the assembly. On the sides of the niche, two passage doors integrate with the panelling, allowing access to the dining room, dedicated to social living and designed for seamless continuation of the kitchen.
VVD Kitchen Molteni & C
With its elegant lines and refined details, the VVD kitchen continues to redefine contemporary living. The new features, including a variety of materials and finishes, offer endless possibilities for creating a truly bespoke kitchen.
Designed by Vincent Van Duysen, the VVD kitchen, characterized by meticulous attention to detail and unique components, evolves in 2024 with the addition of new elements and finishes. A 150 mm thick marble countertop joins the existing 20 mm and 60 mm options, enriching the aesthetic of the VVD kitchen.
The new snack bar features a novel type of support that can also be applied to other kitchens in the Molteni&C collection, as does the new 2700°K LED spotlight, which can also be used for cabinet covers.
The new PT40 door, designed for an integrated kitchen project that also includes transitions between different rooms, aligns with the kitchen facades up to a maximum height of 3000 mm. The width ranges from a minimum of 600 mm for single doors to a maximum of 2400 mm for double doors. The PT40 door is also available in push, pull, and pivot variants, with a thickness of 40 or 50 mm depending on the hinge, and is made with both sides in the same finish.
The new finishes are both material and intriguing, including: Rosso Levanto marble for countertops and Tuscan Brown steel for facades; Midnight Oak, Cloud Gray, Warm Gray, Cream, and Caramel melamine; and Iris and Cappuccino lacquers.
Snaidero Elementi
Snaidero reaffirms its dedication to pursuing understated and refined aesthetics with the evolution of Elementi, the kitchen that represents the epitome of minimalist style and limitless design flexibility.
The new island block system transforms the workspace into a sculptural monolith, which is both elegant and exceptionally functional, accentuating Elementi’s minimalism. Its surface seamlessly integrates functionality and aesthetics, crafting a kitchen environment where beauty and practicality harmoniously coexist. Noteworthy are the details, such as the framed top with a basin, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship and an added precaution to prevent water overflow.
Available in ceramic, stone, or marble, the block features a horizontal mark that not only enhances the surface but also conceals the joints between the sides and the top.
Configuring the new aesthetics of the Elementi kitchen are the groundbreaking PVD mirror-effect Amalfi doors. This mirror-effect finish reflects the surroundings, creating extraordinary scenes that captivate both the eye and touch. The diamond cream ceramic of the island and the Ribbed aluminum European walnut wood of the cabinets come alive thanks to these reflections that bring the spaces to life.
The kitchen transforms into a reflection of its environment and consequently, of the style and personality of its occupants. Sipario pocket-doors promote a pure, linear kitchen aesthetic. With their discreet presence, they open to reveal a fully-equipped working area, while when closed, they maintain a seamless surface, contributing to the minimalist and uncluttered appearance of the space.
In its various configurations, the curtain portal adapts to different functional solutions such as operational kitchens, pantries, and appliance storage, ensuring a cohesive design scheme.
The Groove door, unique to Elementi, continues to be a defining feature of the kitchen, enhancing it with its sleek design that hides the handle and enables easy opening, adding to the kitchen’s clean and modern style.
Arrital Nautila
Arrital’s Nautila kitchen is a testament to the harmonious interplay of nature and design. This innovative kitchen system redefines culinary spaces, Nautila offers a striking aesthetic while prioritizing functionality.
Beyond its captivating appearance, the kitchen’s intelligent design incorporates innovative storage solutions and versatile overhead elements, transforming it into a multifunctional hub that seamlessly integrates into modern living environments.
Nautila is the new kitchen system designed by the architect Franco Driusso, inspired by a noble example of “oceanic architecture”: the shell of the Nautilus, whose internal chamber structure is recognised as one of the best-known forms of golden ratio, mathematical language of beauty and absolute design.
The core of the collection is the door characterized by a ribbed aluminium support (16-mm thick), a material renowned for its technical properties which adds high performance in terms of stability and lightness. These features allow the use of large doors without compromising the opening mechanisms and ensuring long-lasting durability.
New materials create a different visual and tactile impact. In addition to Fenix NTM® solid colours and Sand and Gloss lacquer coverings , Arrital offers a version with wooden strips of Rovere Fumè, available in brushed or milled finish, with regular or asymmetrical strips.
Nautila goes beyond the idea of a kitchen environment and brings home its own design language: a new overhead system transforms the concept of the kitchen into a multitasking space and acts as an architrave separating living and dining areas.
Eye-catching and elegant, thanks to the geometrically perfect alternation of solid and empty spaces, the new overhead system is provided with integrated LED lighting and can store kitchen utensils and support the main service accessories, such as shelves and electrical sockets, while an integrated transparent glass element protects the cooking area.
The add-ons to the composition include the new base units with open drawers and GEM display units in the new 120-cm modules, fitted with new internal accessories (bottle holders, glass holders, plate holders) supported by a matt black painted aluminium frame with integrated LED lighting.
The collection is completed by the new Sipario storage system with four concealed doors, which can be configured internally in different versions, including the solution with integrated extraction.
