Contemporary kitchen CONVIVIUM, ERA SYSTEM

marbleanodized aluminumFenix NTM®

Cooking, eating, and living together. Main player of this project is the big island with Convivium Elegant door in black PVD stainless steel, worktop in polished Black Saint Laurent marble and built-in Up&Down table with Era worktop in NTF grey oak. The same wood has been used for the panelling around the walls that houses accessorised tall units, New Pocket System disappearing elements, refrigerated wine unit Vina, and a space and Frame System door that link the socialising area with a wet kitchen. The island with built-in ritual table and work zone hidden inside functional spaces are the essence of a concept that has evolved over time, but which confirms the concept of living a home to the full and which, once again, defines the kitchen as the heart of the home and hub of family life, with the focus on sharing. Work island with worktop in 20 cm thick polished Black Saint Laurent marble, with drip guard on all sides allowing for more freedom when cooking food and using water: a detail that transforms preparation into ease of use. In the centre of the wall of tall units, the refrigerated dual-temperature wine unit Vina. The work island integrates the Era System ritual table in NTF grey oak slats with Up&Down system: an exclusive Arclinea project created in 2002 to give an adjustable height top from 75 to 90 cm high. Easy manual adjustment of the height of the table built into the island allows for different uses and consequent multifunctionality of the kitchen. “Convivium represents a new yet old-style model of kitchen, where food is prepared and eaten in company, an enjoyable moment filled with sharing and emotional value.” ANTONIO CITTERIO
