CATTELAN AND THE DESIGN OPEN SPACE
There was a time when each room had a very specific role: the kitchen was dedicated to the preparation of dishes to be consumed all together in the dining room, the living room was the place to receive guests and spend free time with the family , while the sleeping area was the most intimate part of the house to live in at the end of the day.
Today, with the new rhythms of life and the spread of a more open distribution of domestic environments, these divisions seem decidedly antiquated and do not reflect much the modern idea of "home sweet home". On the contrary, the concept of open space makes its way in the new designs, making the rooms more airy and bright, making the most of even the smallest sizes and where the various functions intersect and confuse each other.
Having fewer walls means saving precious space, but it is possible to give an idea of division through the correct placement of furniture such as a large dining table for the whole family, ottomans to move wherever you want or a low table to be dedicated to the conversation area. And it is here that the Venetian company Cattelan meets this lifestyle, thanks to its passion for the family, for new ideas and for every project that becomes a piece of furniture.
IKON & ANNA
Among the contemporary habits around the table, we certainly find chatting with friends while cooking or watching the children playing in the living room while the grown-ups dine. The Ikon table marries this mood with style: the precious wood beam and irregularly edged rests on a very original and invisible crystal structure.
The furniture that cannot be missing in this case is a comfortable and elegant chair and the simple design of the Anna model is perfect: padded and slightly shaped, with low or high backrest, with or without armrests.
To create a perfect conversation area, you can play with the geometric design of the Bob poufs: versatile and with bright colors, they are pleasant to the touch and comfortable in their padding. Thanks to its wheels, moreover, they are considered as a wild card to be used in any environment when needed.
Alternatively, if you already have a large sofa or armchairs, a low table is ideal to complete the relaxation area, such as the Lingotto coffee table: materials and workmanship that contrast with each other, creating a perfect combination of elegance and modernity.
