Product catalog summary
Introduction
The Thea kitchen model, designed by Antonio Citterio, is a handle-free kitchen concept that emphasizes minimalism and practicality. It features a separation profile between doors for easy opening and is designed to accommodate both Wet and Show kitchen zones, aligning with the trend of dividing kitchens into functional and social areas.
Design Philosophy
The design approach of Thea is influenced by global trends in creating spaces for social interaction. The kitchen serves as a bridge between the functional Wet kitchen and the social Show kitchen, with a focus on simplicity and integration. The design replaces conventional handles with continuous grooves for enhanced accessibility and elegance.
Home Project
The Thea kitchen separates the Wet and Show kitchens using a wall system that also connects them. Key elements include the Waterfall worktop and Canto snack bar, which enhance both functionality and aesthetics. The design allows for flexibility and customization through components from the Arclinea Collection.
Technology and Materials
The kitchen uses advanced materials like Fenix NTM® and features such as the Gola Profile for handle-free doors. The Waterfall worktop and Madia unit from the Winery Collection are highlighted for their design and functionality. The architecture supports seamless transitions between cooking and living spaces.
