Stone and stainless steel. An Ego kitchen by Abimis in Scicli\u00a0<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Nestled in the Scicli countryside, this ancient Sicilian residence tells a story of subtle balance between heritage and design, rural authenticity and a profoundly contemporary vision of comfort.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside, the slow rhythm of the garden is defined by dry-stone boundary walls, large terracotta jars, and the vivid blue of doors and windows that echoes the blue of the sky and the shimmer of the pool. <\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\t

Inside, a measured, almost invisible intervention enhances rather than disrupts the architecture\u2019s rural nature. Exposed stone walls, wooden beams and small apertures that filter the light create an intimate, domestic atmosphere where every element finds its place naturally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Architecture within architecture <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As in the most traditional Sicilian homes, the kitchen plays a fundamental role. The double-height space that houses it develops lengthwise, punctuated by windows and the regular rhythm of the beams. The designer chose not to interrupt this linearity but instead highlighted it with a solution of great character.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\t\n\t

An Ego kitchen by Abimis was selected in an articulated configuration that becomes an integral part of the space. Architect Filippo Walcher, supported by the Abimis technical team, developed a bespoke and fully customised solution for the Ego kitchen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A functional and design-led Ego kitchen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As requested by the owners, who are passionate gourmets, the Ego kitchen by Abimis<\/a><\/strong> was designed for everyday use. It required an imposing scenic presence while remaining functional with uncompromising performance.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The layout extends across three sides. Two opposing walls house the workstations, crafted in exposed stainless steel orbitally polished by hand, facing each other in rigorous symmetry. On one side sits the washing and preparation zone, equipped with drawers and storage compartments; on the other, the cooking area features a bespoke professional hood integrated seamlessly into the ensemble. <\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\t

The focal point is a system of stainless steel tall units with a mirror finish covering the entire back wall. The rounded flush-fit doors without visible hinges (an Abimis patent) form a vast, uniform reflective surface. This contrast between glossy and matt finishes creates a dramatic effect that enhances the perspective, multiplies the perception of space, and brightens the environment.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\t\n\t

To add warmth to the stainless steel surfaces, the handles were crafted in brass. This material was also chosen for the utensil rails and the spotlights illuminating the worktop.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\t

The lower section of the kitchen is punctuated by open compartments, while the stainless steel tops host terracotta vases and a series of original Abimis accessories<\/a><\/strong> such as chopping boards and the Lame knife<\/a> <\/strong>block, <\/em><\/strong>produced exclusively by the historic Tuscan company Coltellerie Berti<\/strong>. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\t\n\t

Perspective, reflections, depth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The result is a compelling interplay between materials and finishes. The colours and textures of the stone walls, the dark flooring, the beams with their traditional reed-mat infill, the brass details, and the natural woven fibres of lamps and carpets  are absorbed by the soft, silky surfaces of the orbitally polished stainless steel, while reflecting boldly off the polished stainless steel.  \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\t

A kitchen designed for living<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In this home, the kitchen is not a separate room. It is the functional and symbolic heart of domestic life. The linear, mirrored configuration allows multiple people to move simultaneously without interference. It is a kitchen that welcomes and invites sharing, yet maintains an almost professional functional clarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is precisely where the logic of the Abimis choice reveals itself: bringing the quality, precision and reliability of professional kitchens into a domestic space without sacrificing a design language consistent with the architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result is a synthesis of traditional Sicilian strength, colours and materials with the essential purity of stainless steel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It proves once again the expressive power of Abimis stainless steel kitchens<\/strong>, which never impose their presence but integrate harmoniously into any context, whether classic or rustic, minimalist or design-focused.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":28518,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"project-type":[75],"tipologia":[113],"class_list":["post-28535","realizzazione","type-realizzazione","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","project-type-ego-en","tipologia-indoor"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/abimis.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/realizzazione\/28535","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/abimis.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/realizzazione"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/abimis.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/realizzazione"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abimis.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/abimis.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/realizzazione\/28535\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28537,"href":"https:\/\/abimis.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/realizzazione\/28535\/revisions\/28537"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abimis.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28518"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/abimis.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28535"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"project-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abimis.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project-type?post=28535"},{"taxonomy":"tipologia","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abimis.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tipologia?post=28535"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
