DESIGN AND PLANNING
It is a fact: our kitchens are placed in increasingly confined areas.
Over the last few decades, homes have filled the outskirts of cities– not to mention historic city centres – and today it is common to live in apartments or small houses.
The world of interior design is placing a great deal of emphasis on the reinterpretation of these spaces through furniture: those who live in a one-room or small two-room apartment can now achieve a high level of comfort, as well as fit out a small kitchen, even if they have only a few square metres available.

Transforming the day area into an open space by eliminating, when possible, the walls that separate the kitchen from the living room will enable you to create a large, bright room.
In small and narrow kitchens, you can cleverly carve out useful space through the use of concealed or dual-purpose wall units, such as island tables, built-in larders or kitchen appendages that can be raised and lowered.
Less furniture does not mean more clutter: everything must be planned to increase functionality whilst improving the aesthetic impact.
Be it a kitchen, living room or open space, choosing light colours for the furniture and floor will help to make the rooms seem larger.
The strategic use of both natural and artificial light can create an illusion of seamlessness between indoors and outdoors, almost giving the impression of being outdoors.
If you don’t feel bold enough to opt for an open space, a compromise solution would be the use of dividers, such as doors and sliding panels: if you have the foresight to choose “light” versions of these, i.e. made of smoked or semi-transparent glass, you will achieve the result of not unduly weighing down the room.
