The main feature of this kitchen is the sense of horizontality, visible in the dimensions of the large extractable doors but also in the walnut boards with black inlays like those on the "deck" of a sailing vessel, thus evoking the relationship with the Liguria-based company and the sea. The large-sized and large-capacity furniture is fitted with large drawers, making it possible to maximise the space in the kitchen and increase the storage capacity. The prevalent front feature is the design of the curved steel handles (produced by Cosma) are knurled and easy to grip, also with two hands like the helm of a boat. A set of aluminium stave panels (the patented Wall System) makes it possible to wall-mount all the containers of kitchen implements and objects.
