Modern kitchen island TAI O

limestonemarblelacquered metal

Overview
Tai O by Key Cucine is conceived as a spatial concept centred on an island that organises the entire composition. The L-shaped plan separates the living area from the kitchen work area, while wooden modules around the island create a framed, functional perimeter. Materials and details emphasise architectural clarity: millennial fossil oak, a metal unit with a soft biotite satin effect and a top in Clauzetto marble with fossil texture.

DESIGNER
Nevio Tellatin and Anita Brotto

THE UNIQUE DETAIL
The island element is designed as a small urban centre — an interpretation of Ernesto Nathan Rogers’ phrase “From Spoon to City”. The island functions as a centre around which the composition moves, combining display-like counters and customised framing with practical storage.
