merging practicality of use and attention to detail, italian brand abimis has developed its ego custom-made kitchen model in partnership with architect alberto torsello. ‘being on many foodies’ wish-list who dream of enjoying – at home – an experience as in a restaurant, professional kitchens require less rigorous styling when fitted in domestic environments. indeed, their cold functionality must apply for more elegant shapes,’ explains abimis on its signature style.
the composition of the abimis ego design by alberto torsello is entirely made of AISI 304 stainless steel. yet its squared silhouettes, typical of large professional kitchens, are ‘softened’ by the bevelled doors fully integrated into the structure, the by hand orbitally polished finish and rounded handles. the AISI 304 finish is also available in the polished version: the blocks making up the kitchen, which are designed and built specifically according to each individual design, can be distinguished by a mirror-like effect, whose varying shades are capable of lending the kitchen the appearance of an elegant monolith.
