Sophisticated Functionality | Minety

We worked closely with our client to develop this wonderfully sophisticated installation in Minety.  The vast rear storage wall boosts an impressive array of appliances including the Gaggenau oven stacks, Gaggenau 76cm fridge, along with a Miele 76cm fridge freezer.

A large floating cabinet was incorporated to enhance the kitchen storage capacity.  This piece was deliberately designed to contrast with the main kitchen units and provide a more furniture-like appearance.  The cabinet was meticulously hand veneered in straight-grained Paldao and included Amazonico marble backing to visually link it with that of the oven niche.     

The island stands on our double-hoop leg design.  Crafted using a steel core which is over laminated with birch ply before being spray lacquered in dark grey.  We set the leg hoops wide apart, towards each end of the island which achieves an impressive visual stance. However this is not without its complexities and we have worked hard to engineer a hidden steel frame system that allows for such a span, without the island bowing in the centre and without the need for additional central supports.
