Paolo Piva & CR & S Varenna (2003)
(for Poliform Varenna)
The primary form. Rigorous design for a new definition of the kitchen. A project by Paolo Piva formal connotation "minimal": to convert every practical unit into sheer design, essential forms, maintaining the highest operational capacity.
The aesthetic concept of Alea is linked to the strong prominence which singles out every composition, every element, and which is at times an edge frame structure. Containers, work plans, operational areas to the wall or island become real "solid" geometric surfaces which enhance the individual materials. In any Alea detail brings out the design of "shaping" a new concept of the kitchen.-

Designer Ibsen Caldas has designed the Gota, a nifty little dishwasher that can fit on any tabletop. It may have the look of an alien spaceship, but the sleek design is certainly an upgrade from most tabletop dishwashers. More importantly, this little device conserves water by recycling pre-wash water for use in later cycles.
Implications - The way the Gota works is by steaming the dishes in the pre-wash cycle and then using its own recycling method to use up the residual H2O left from the steam. The body of the dishwasher is made out of ABS polycarbonate and will last the owner plenty of years. This eco-friendly method is not only great for the environment, but also great for your hydro bill!

This week product
Gota Dishwasher Is Designed to Recycle Water
Strength of purpose
Cabinetry : Stained oak veneer; two-pack polyurethane in White
Cabinetry hardware : Blum
Storage systems : Kesseböhmer
Benchtops and splashback : Custom in stainless steel and marble
This was the scenario when designer Keith Sheedy came to this kitchen project. The long warehouse space was flooded with light at one end but the central kitchen was too small and too dark. This was partly due to the choice of blackbutt for the walls as well as the floors, says Sheedy.
"To lighten the area, I had the ceiling and walls painted white and added cabinets and solid marble benchtops in the same tone. The grey-veined stone picks up the white of the main cabinetry and connects with the stained oak veneer of the tall wall cabinets and the under-bench island cabinetry."
Several aspects of the new kitchen were led by the owner's professional needs. As she can be preparing meals for up to 50 people at a time, and at speed, plenty of foot room and bench space were required.
"The walk-in scullery offers valuable storage and generous work surfaces," says Sheedy. "And a cool room brings the added flexibility that's essential when catering for groups, large and small."
Every aspect of the kitchen has to stand up to frequent prolonged use. Sheedy had the stainless steel benchtop and cooktop welded together in Italy, ensuring the trivets are flush with the work surface. This clean look is continued with an integrated rangehood under the upper cabinetry.
The kitchen also had to blend with the living area in aesthetic terms, says Sheedy.
