Kitchen Art - Underground Movement




Like minded people can, and will gravitate towards each other! When this occurs radical new ideas can develop quickly and become more widely accepted, having a long term impact on our set of expectations.  The Mogul believes that Kitchen Design is a functional art form impacting individuals on a sensory and spiritual level; it is therefore encouraging to find another group of people who have a similar ethos!
MOKA or Modern Kitchen Art developed the Superma range with flexibility and efficiency in mind but what makes this kitchen different is the fact that the designers have released the power of light! 
Translucent materials and Ledā€™s allow this kitchen to explore the interactive possibilities of not actually being used.  When in standby the kitchen can become intrusive or invisible and it can also complement the surrounding architecture and the personal lifestyle of the user. 
Kitchen Design is evolving into a multi-levelled design discipline that can deliver functional satisfaction and even companionship to the user.  The Mogul is delighted to be part of this movement!

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!

Style Peacemaker

To mediate is to broker agreement and here we see a kitchen becoming a style peacemaker.   The industrial architecture sets the contemporary scene aptly aided by the exposed ventilation system which has been laid bare through the calculating incisions made by an architectā€™s drafting pen.   Light is allowed to penetrate and contradict the industrial space through more classically styled windows, casting shadows that have been polluted by the traditional influence of Georgian frames. The kitchens detachment from the floor is aesthetically powerful but it also shows how we have become scientific in our approach to functional furniture design.   We have learned that it is difficult to reach things at floor level while standing up straight!   The introduction of layers, shapes and warm light helps to soften the surroundings without confusing the picture.   It can be argued that the kitchen designer has been sensitive to the architecture while providing a ...

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!
