A concept of the home as an open space, in which rooms can
interact and integrate with each other. The kitchen is no longer
interpreted as just an enclosed working space; instead, it is a
genuine extension of the living area, the fulcrum of the home,
dedicated to spending time together. In design terms, Sign,
the new kitchen created for Ernestomeda, is conceived with
contents of high formal and aesthetic value but without
neglecting the functional aspect, with equipment performance
levels very close to professional standards.
Sign is a kitchen with an informal character, with a strong focus
on materials, in a mix of colours that generates very elegant
interiors with strong emotional impact. The centre of the
kitchen’s design is the elegant open boiserie structure, with
enclosed wall units replaced by shelves and glass-fronted
cabinets, real display areas that create continuity and harmony
with the living area. Perfectly integrated in the cupboard
systems, Inside Passage is the patented system of doors which
rotate and stow in a pack at the side, custom-designed for
Ernestomeda to provide the vital linkage between the kitchen
and the adjoining area. Inside Passage gives access to the
Back System area, a free-standing structure that covers all the
home’s utility functions and can be specifically equipped to suit
different requirements, becoming a wine cellar, a laundry, or a
pantry for storing food and kitchen utensils. A perfectly
organised, equipped area of the home.
