Kitchen Hedonism

This kitchen is both simple and ornate.  The designer has stripped it naked removing the cornice and any other feature that would complicate the idea and dilute the impact of the kitchen art!

This kitchen holds a secret.  This kitchen wants attention.  This kitchen could step into the lime light as a truly magnificent piece of functional kitchen art.  The turned legs and ornately framed wall unit take this concept into a league of its own; the eye is drawn to these decorative features and it almost feels as though you should not be looking! 

This kitchen strikes a pose that is impressive enough to be on the cover of Vogue magazine.  This design is evocative, expressing individuality and hedonism. 

The Mogul loves how this one pouts at the camera.

    You're right about those unexpected turned legs - especially under the base cabinets. What was the old rule about a lady never showing her ankles?

Functional Thinking

Purity is a desirable attribute especially if used to disguise complexity!  This design manages to encourage a lingering desire to admire, the type of art gallery presence that demands quiet contemplation to fully appreciate.  By cleverly layering simple linear forms and combining a reserved colour palette this under stated design could be considered a masterpiece of functional thinking! Think about it!

Functional Fabric

The modern kitchen has become an iconic symbol of fashionable style.   It is therefore appropriate that kitchen designers should now keep their eye firmly fixed on the latest textiles and fabrics to grace the runways of Europe especially now that fabric doors can be specified in their next kitchen design! The Meccanica Kitchen by Valcucine evaporates the traditional rigidity of kitchen installation by using an innovative frame work system that can be transported easily, can be assembled by the end user and is 100% recyclable.   It even comes with an end of life cycle “take back guarantee” whereby your old kitchen will be collected, sand blasted and re-coated so that it can re-enter the production cycle!   Oh yea and did The Mogul mention that the doors are fabric!! The Mogul knows that this is going to be a huge hit with the more Eco conscious inhabitants of the planet as the concept dramatically reduces the  carbon footprint of a kitchen. ...

Functional Revolution Through Artistic Evolution

  Amongst the chaos there is order! And here we see a vibrant mix of functional art that inspires the onlooker to delve deeper into this design and realise the complex levels of thought that have inspired such a flagrant disregard for convention. Excitement can be conjured by the exotic, and this design by Gitta Gschwendtner for Schiffini floats the notion that functionality can become an artistic experiment.   To some this may just be a series of boxes but to others this could be seen as an attempt to deliver a functional revolution through artistic evolution. The Mogul approves!
