KIT is the result of a thoughtful analysis on the role of furniture as elements that structure space. In times where architecture shifts for more open and non-hierarchical spaces, a kitchen conceived with furniture logic adapts to the idea of a flexible, dynamic and integrated space.
The piece reinterprets an archetype traditionally associated with other rooms and devices in the house, and poses the challenge of integrating the functionality and ergonomics of a kitchen into an object usually conceived for other uses.
