B2 Kitchen Workshop by bulthaup | Kitchen design

Image
With the b2 kitchen workshop , German kitchen manufacturer bulthaup has radically rethought the traditional concept of a kitchen. Starting from the philosophical origins of every living space – fire and water points – bulthaup has created an open and mobile kitchen that can be added to and composed to suit each individual’s personal requirements. The b2 kitchen is comprised of a workbench, which houses the fire and water point, a kitchen tool cabinet for crockery, cooking utensils, spices and food, and an appliance cabinet, which houses the oven, dishwasher and refrigerator. The storage space has been so cleverly compacted that pull-outs and drawers have been rendered completely unnecessary. bulthaup b2 is a kitchen that either conceals everything or shows it off. By opening the in-door storage doors it is possible to get an overview of the entire kitchen domain. Everything needed for a two person household is visible at a glance and within reach. Once the doors are cl

Modern Attitude Kitchen by Arthur Bonnet | Kitchen design

Image
Designed by Marc Moreau for French kitchen manufacturer Arthur Bonnet , the Attitude kitchen is  contemporary design that uses wood in a modern way, whilst paying tribute to traditional French cabinet making techniques. Made from bright ash, with its light and vibrant grain, the material choice is less predictable than more traditional oak. Ash has a strong personality and is a solid and reassuring type of wood, which conveys emotion. The warmth and emotion of the wood contrasts with the stainless steel glimmer of the recessed handles which use an original mechanism that is exclusive to Arthur Bonnet. The design uses a recessed system to preserve the line of the metal along the entire side of the front. The island layout provides a very successful division of the space, with its easily identifiable work areas. The Attitude kitchen makes a real statement about ergonomics. Thanks to its U-shaped design, the island frees up space for an integrated dining area with a wood
