Canossa is the multifunctional and modular SCIC outdoor kitchen.
Canossa is therefore a hybrid that remains modern in its modularity, quotes and reinterprets stylistic features of the world of economic kitchens, adapting them to the logic and needs of the contemporary world. While rationality does not expect aesthetics to be detached from functionality or to come out of a productive logic of optimization, Canossa is based on it and explores an evolved concept of luxury. What makes this design extraordinary, in fact, is its superfluous: metals, handrails, brasses, feet are not structurally and functionally essential elements, but only enrich the kitchen with handcrafted and classic details.
Its metallic matrix requires greater compositional rigor, with strict compilation rules: if on one hand this appears as a limit, on the other it gives Canossa a much broader aesthetic vocabulary than the one traditional modular kitchens have. The vertical brackets, in fact, interrupt the rhythm of the composition and allow transitions between doors of different materials and thicknesses. Therefore, you can come across a front where from 12mm thick doors in stoneware with groove opening, you go to 27 mm thick doors in ribbed and lacquered glass with handle, or doors made in stone or walnut.
For the realization of the project, five cast pieces with brass finish have been envisaged, exclusively designed for Canossa. These elements, combined with the 8mm solid metal details, allow the assembly and adjustment of the structural exoskeleton in complete autonomy, which, once finished, is then compiled with the modular wooden structures.
The system also always provides a central area for the passage of systems, which makes the work of electrical wiring and the connection of water-drains easier and its suspended structure does not preclude the installation of any household appliance, dishwasher included. Through an exclusive adjustment mechanism of the leveling feet, the system provides the management of a total floor out of square of 22mm which leaves the aesthetics of the entire design intact.
