Häfele introduces Arena Style for the modern kitchen
February 26th, 2009
The modern kitchen is no longer a place of mere utility while the real living takes place elsewhere; instead it now takes centre stage as a gathering point, entertainment venue and art gallery.
This change in lifeways is driving a new emphasis on fixtures, fittings and storage solutions that combine thoughtful design with aesthetics.
Kesseböhmer ‘ARENA Style’ from Häfele marries high quality finish and unparalleled user comfort to create functional interiors that reflect the sophisticated tastes of modern consumers.
Driven by the twin goals of organization and accessibility ‘ARENA Style’ creates space and order while ensuring pots, pans and food items are readily to hand.
The Anti-slip base prevents the drawer and cupboard contents from slipping or sliding in motion. Nooks and crannies that previously escaped notice are put to work thanks to the ingenious rotating, swivel and pull-out drawers, pantries and corner solutions.
Slammed doors and drawers fade into memory with the integrated or optional soft-stop mechanism for cushioned closing.
Kesseböhmer’s commitment to form, fashion and function gives back something we all need most: time.
