The protagonists of Lignum et Lapis are stone and wood: their exclusive use, in the design and creativity of the project. The new door enhances the value of natural wood with its exclusive design in strips of variable width and distance.
Arclinea - Lignum et Lapis kitchen
The main players of Lignum et Lapis are stone, stainless steel and wood: materials used exclusively for design and project creativity. Formal study and technologies have allowed the production of islands, worktops and workbenches in stone: true physical industrial sculptures. With exclusive stave design in variable widths and distances. Lignum et Lapis Island is a living unit. On the one side guests can help with preparation, on the other, which houses all the kitchen equipment, those cooking can share techniques and the pleasure of good food.
Cooking and sharing the experience with your guests. This is the idea behind the project that puts Lignum et Lapis centre-stage with its sculpture-island in stone or steel. Here in steel with Italia laminate doors, conceived as a separate room, functional and yet perfect for socialising: while you cook on the side where the equipment is, your guests can watch from the other side, sharing preparation and the taste of good food. This socialising zone integrates with the area housing the sinks, pantry, and tall units for refrigerator and ovens, surrounded by the wood panelling on the walls and matching Modus horizontal folding doors. On the opposite side, Vina refrigerated wine unit completes the design idea and the experiential mood of this room.
A large work space, an environment offering high-level professional performance, perfect for hosting and sharing the pleasure of cooking and tasting.
In the center, the "sculpture" island Lignum et Lapis with stainless steel structure. The large sink top, which concentrates the functions of washing and cooking, is equipped with dustbins, PaperStone² grills and walnut boards, both sliding. The new channel separates the workspace from the snack with marble insert.
The fume extraction, fundamental in a professional kitchen space, is resolved with two large New Artusi Professional stainless steel hoods with perimeter glass. Behind the island, the wall system houses, in addition to refrigerators, ovens and refrigerated cellar Vina & Container, also a functional area dedicated to washing dishes. Absolute practicality of use and ergonomics in the choice of finishes: steel and Fenix NTM# black doors with integrated handle Italy. A large table Arclinea bench in natural oak wood complete the living.

Arclinea
Since 1988 the Arclinea project has aimed to bring innovation in the space of cooking. The first product symbol of a new concept is Italy by Antonio Citterio, who incorporates materials, ways and uses of professional equipment. New is the aesthetics of unalterable and resistant to water and fire steel, technically processed with the precision necessary for the best functional performance. The floors are deeper, streamlined and organized for preparation and cooking, with a dedicated double wash-for food and crockery, with the aim of giving the right working tools for the highest quality of the result. Over the years the professional concept has been extending to new products and is enriched with other technical solutions, more performing equipment, more sophisticated finishes.
