Individual elements for the kitchen from bulthaup
Individual elements for the kitchen from bulthaup
Luxurious playground
The Milan showroom of bulthaup in Via Durini in Milan was buzzing these days. No wonder, the Bavarian kitchen manufacturer presented three concepts at once at Eurocucina 2014. One of them is the Solitäre - elaborately crafted and technical-looking individual elements that cover three functions in the kitchen: food preparation, the presentation of tableware and cooking utensils, and waste separation. The design is reminiscent of an earlier bulthaup product, the Butcher's Block. While the rollable waste separation element is made of aluminum and is normally in a closed state and only folded out when needed, the preparation and presentation elements stand out with an open design.
The fixed geometric grid of beveled metal struts can be customized with various shelves, grids and storage elements. On the thick wooden plate of the preparation element, it is certainly allowed to tinker and cut. However, for those who do not dare to do so because they want to maintain the perfect surface, there are cutting boards that can be pulled out from the sides. The presentation element is made of thick glass and displays what is precious to you in the kitchen: a tea service from Meissen perhaps, the silver cutlery from Robbe & Berking or the expensive cooking pots made of copper. The Solitäre from bulthaup are extremely luxurious and embed themselves in a trend that was solidified at this year's Eurocucina: The kitchen is no longer just a workshop à la Otl Aicher. The kitchen is a status symbol. csh
When the Solitäre will be available in stores as a product ready for series production has not yet been determined.
