A new experience of living the kitchen. Acting on existing spaces, re-describe and transform are strategies that are applied today in contemporary architecture; specifically, in this kitchen, integration with the living room is emphasized by means of a diaphanous central island that, by not receiving natural light in desired amounts, proposes the use of home automation as a response to that need, celebrating experiences that change according to the mood of its guests.
Luxury is transformed into sobriety and, in turn, into visual quality: colours, chrome metals, signature pieces, mixed furniture and degrees of light and sound.
