The eco-tech kitchen.
We have worked on extreme door dematerialisation to meet requirements in terms of functionality and silhouette. Riciclantica stands for “lightness and resilience»: the lightest door in the world fits into an aluminium structure that is water-, steam- and heat-resistant.
This makes it possible to plan kitchen layouts with wall-hung units, allowing for the utmost freedom of arrangement and movement and creating a durable and cutting-edge design.
Due to the remarkable reduction of materials used, combined with the eco-tech finishes, this kitchen is sustainable yet innovative, designed for those who pay a great deal of attention to their well-being and to living in harmony with nature.
THE NEW RICICLANTICA LINEA C6 TOP
By Valcucine Design Department
For the first time in the kitchen sector Valcucine, partnered with Guardian, presents the new, glass Linea C6 worktop. This worktop is more wear-resistant than any other top on the market thanks to its special protection that gives it unprecedented properties and an exceptional hardness close to the 8th degree of the Mohs scale. The very smooth surface of the new top makes it easier to clean and more hygienic.
THE NEW ACCESSORISED WALL PANELLING
By Valcucine Design Department
Visual lightness and versatility distinguish this new, minimalist, wall panelling system accessorised with various integrated elements that fulfil different aesthetic and functional requirements to customise the kitchen and living room spaces and favour their integration.
The new wall panelling system has also been designed to make it easier to lay water pipes and electric cable runs with no need for masonry work. These systems are now fitted and perfectly concealed inside a revolutionary furnishing element.
THE NEW “ROVERE TATTILE MILLENIUM” AND STEEL FINISHES
By Valcucine Design Department
The new accessorised wall panelling for the Riciclantica arrangement is shown in the new “Rovere Tattile Millenium” finish which, due to the fact that it has been lying on the river bed for thousands of years (the radiocarbon dating method dates the wood as far back as 6600 and 7000 B.C.) and since it has been exceptionally preserved intact without fossilizing, can offer unique water, stain and light resistance.
Valcucine combines contemporary formal rigour with the warm, textural feel of wood, in line with the choices made when “Noce Tattile” and “Olmo Tattile” were launched. On the other hand, the tower units shown in the arrangement appear as a single, pure volume thanks to the Artematica “Noce Tattile Millenium” doors.
Together with the warmth of wood, Valcucine also offers Riciclantica in a new version in stainless steel that has been first sand-blasted, then burnished, and lastly protected using nanotechnologies to give it a special, rough, finish.
