Piece by piece

For years, kitchens have been designed along predictable lines. But questioning what goes where and why can produce a far more interesting design one that is also highly functional.

That is the premise behind the design of the SieMatic BeauxArts 02 collection. Renowned designer Mick De Giulio, who collaborated on the project with the SieMatic team, says a great kitchen has a magic that transforms the physical room into a feeling.

"People are drawn to that kitchen, and they may not know why," De Giulio says. "The kitchen sings, and it is my job to write the music. This collection expands design freedom with new, unconventional ideas. The only rules are the rules dictated by your own personal style playing around with styles and volumes, colors and materials, symmetry and asymmetry is all part of the experience."

SieMatic BeauxArts 02 incorporates stainless steel and glass wall cabinets with ebonized walnut interiors that form a dramatic counterpoint to lacquered and stainless steel drawers and doors. Mirrored toekicks create the illusion that the base cabinets are floating above the floor, while the linear design creates a light, streamlined appearance.
