‘I love to encourage my clients to express themselves with colour, because it creates a very personal and individual result. Rich, opulent colours, like the Viola here, help to accentuate the dramatic shapes, and the depth of the sparkling finish of the Metallizzata lacquer animates the curved elements of the design when it catches the light at different angles. This is another very sociable design, bringing the kitchen right into the centre of the space, away from the confining nature of the walls. For the cook, all the appliances are easy to hand and the curved shape follows the natural twisting movement of the body, while the outer circle makes a spacious area for friends and family to pull up a bar stool to join in the conversation. Venetian Cracked Ice inlaid into the smooth Volanic Stone worktop perfectly follows the curved shape of the design, its sparkling effect accentuated by lighting. To complete the room, the ceiling feature mirrors the curved shape of the design for a theatrical finish.’
