The programme synthesizes the long collaboration that existed between Magistretti and Schiffini in designing kitchen environments and in researching materials. In this case, aluminium is not only the structural element of the doors but of the whole carcase of the modules. In fact, the kitchen uses the Al System (engineered by Cozza & Mascheroni) patented by the company, the first to be wholly in aluminium. The door has a wavy profile that is organically connected to the aluminium or wooden handle. The multi-functional stainless-steel corner unit (180x180) is complete with stovetop, oven, sink and dishwasher and is a new solution that connotes and upgrades the kitchen's operating area. The structure is designed as a peninsula, complete with a snack table, or it can be positioned in a corner, combining it with a wall system. It comes complete with showcases with sliding doors, stainless steel appliances, container peninsulas and large range hoods.
