Overview and Design Philosophy

The MIAMI kitchen collection integrates contemporary and vintage design elements, featuring a blend of sinuous and straight lines. It prominently uses Peltrox®, an innovative steel combining stainless steel AISI 304 qualities with the warmth of pewter. The color palette is inspired by Bertone’s automotive heritage, especially the iconic orange linked to the Lamborghini Miura.

Design Approach and Usability

MIAMI’s design is rooted in automotive styling, balancing refined aesthetics with ergonomic functionality. The kitchen prioritizes accessibility and practicality, ensuring seamless integration of form and everyday usability.

Material Combinations and Customization

The collection offers versatile material pairings such as matt lacquered white doors with anthracite grooves, curved white Betacryl worktops, and Canaletto walnut veneer wall units. The design supports flexible kitchen layouts including linear and island configurations, with glass worktops that visually showcase pantry contents.

Structural and Functional Elements

Key features include transparent glass units veneered with eucalyptus, a large island with Visone UA94 lacquered doors, and a professional-grade steel worktop with a double wash area. The hood placement maximizes cooking workspace, complemented by LED back panels and glass shelves for elegant, functional storage.
