Veneta Cucine / 141

Daniela Archiutti, architect for Veneta Cucine tells us about the inspiration behind the Dialogo kitchen, a system that can flexibly respond to different experiences related to the kitchen space.

Daniela Archiutti, Veneta Cucine's architect quotes Michele De Lucchi when she tells us that "revolutions are not made in the kitchen", because the kitchen, more than any other space in the home, is connected to our experience and our memory.

Dialogo is a system that interprets in a flexible manner the various experiences linked to the kitchen environment. With echoes of Proust, the Dialogo kitchen is hidden in undertones, behind the choice of materials and handcrafted details there is something that brings to mind a familiar and well-known place.

Daniela Archiutti, Dialogo, Veneta Cucine

With a strength that is intrinsic to the materials - rough wood, real and authentic - Dialogo presents a new interpretation of a product that is part of the Veneta Cucine tradition. The wood-framed front with decisive proportions and upper and lower moulding, with or without handle, give Dialogo a contemporary feel without forgetting the strength of tradition, also emphasised by the aged oak finish in which irregularity becomes an intrinsic value.
