Now you see me, now you don’t!






This “shape Shifting” kitchen from Florida Furniture proves yet again that designers are infatuated with hiding the biggest investment you will make in your new or refurbished home. 
Would you buy an Aston Martin and hide it in your garage?  No is the answer, instead you would happily drive it to nowhere just to enjoy the ride and you would take great satisfaction in the social acceptance it would give you....so what is the idea behind hiding your new expensive kitchen?
The Mogul believes that the kitchen is not only a functional space, it is part of the architecture, it shares your private space, the design may have been inspired by your personal tastes and therefore it can be seen as a reflection of self. 
It is therefore fitting that the very best kitchen designers will allow the kitchen to change; adapt to its surroundings, complementing both the architecture and the mood of its owner.  It’s like having a convertible Aston Martin...when the weather is good you may want to drive around with the top down!  Having a kitchen that caters for your every whim will give you pleasure, giving you a product that is great value for money.
Some of the “Shape Shifting” ideas are extreme but these forward thinking concepts will become softened and manipulated into mainstream designs for now and the future!
Keep up the good work!

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 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!

Celestial Island Cluster

Managing to understand and control proportion whilst delivering exemplary functional performance and unrivalled aesthetic impact is a skill which kitchen designers continually hone. Sitting majestically in the centre of the room this island cluster presents itself like an elevated alter of style complete with a ceiling drop that can deliver celestial messages direct to the Gods of design! Soft approachable geometry and the precise sightline and functional arrangement ensure that the impressive architectural scaling must cower down in the presence of this functional master piece. An island is one thing, but if you have enough space why don’t you let your imagination explore the endless possibilities of multi-island arrangements. The Mogul Approves!
