Citterio: Mensolinea / 2

The Convivium kitchen designed by Antonio Citterio for Arclinea, presented at Milan Design Week, has been extended with a new ultra-accessorised shelf that incorporates a range of functions.

Designed by Antonio Citterio for Arclinea, Convivium can be considered as an island unit that elegantly combines functional spaces for preparation with areas for consuming food, featuring doors, top and hood in steel and a "convivial" table in wood.

At the back is a wall composition with white gloss-lacquered doors complete with fridge and oven.

This year, Convivium sees the addition of "Mensolinea" a new, accessorised shelf with a stainless steel finish and LED lighting complete with USB and Schuko sockets, a domestic glasshouse for plants, kitchen roll holder, iPad stand, knife-storage, ceramic spice-holders, bottle-rack, wooden shelf and ceramic vase holder.

To complete the design is a surface that can be lowered automatically via an iOS app (iPhone or iPad).
