Contemporary kitchen SALINAS

Fenix NTM®Corian®aluminum

“Salinas is the beach of my childhood, a long sandy beach with dunes along the Bay of Biscay, Asturias, with huge, crashing waves and intense colours. The kitchen in my grandfather’s house, which commanded a view of that very beach, brings back fond memories of those moments”: with these words Patricia Urquiola describes the inspiration source for Salinas, a kitchen based on an idea of modular structure that offers endless and sophisticated solutions, while maintaining its authentic, strong and linear design. The designer defines the matt black metal structure a “hidden machine”, with modular base units which, once matched, a fully functional composition. Doors and fronts, with recess for the handle, are made of light panels of different materials and colours: ranging from metal (zinc/brass/copper) to aluminium finishing, industrial glass, lacquers or textured concretes. Worktops are in matt ceramic, marble, lava stone Nerosicilia decorated in relief, with an exclusive design by Patricia Urquiola. The worktop is equipped with a modular track with accessories and with an integrated downdraft hood. There is also a “chopping board-table” in solid water-painted Olivato ash or oil-effect varnished Canaletto walnut, that slides to create more space for meal preparation, or can be also used as a snack top. A modular frame-structure, integrated in the equipped track, completes the worktop. It can be fitted with shelves, wall units, LED lighting bars, hanging bars.
