Linea Design: Elegance and Warmth

What does a complete kitchen look mean to you as Stylists?

- “To complete a look, we consider both the aesthetics and functional aspects. And incorporate elements that bring not only a visual look but also awaken your feelings.”

Can you describe yourselves as stylists?

- “From our studio, we work individually or as a team to develop design visions. Our clients include advertising agencies, magazines and brands.  We always focus on creating beautiful and inviting spaces that are both functional and aesthetic, always with sustainability and simplicity in mind.  We find inspiration within people, places, fashion, architecture.”

How do you interpret Smeg's design of Linea and the colour Neptune Grey?

- “Linea Design is confident contemporary. We wanted to capture Linea's key visuals of a sleek and modern look yet balance it with a warmth and inviting feel.”

How did you do this?

- The warmth is brought out by bringing old and new materials together and by combining genuine materials such as metal, marble and wood.  Then a base of grey tones and a touch of blue to flirt with the Neptune Grey colour and to bring out a calm atmosphere. For contrast, we worked with elements of black.

As stylists, what good advice do you have for achieving the perfect look and feel in a kitchen?

- Try to incorporate elements such as warm woods, soft textures and good lighting. We often use a mix of vintage and modern pieces to give the space character and personality. This will create a space that feels warm, modern and inviting. Also, look at how the different elements complement each other or make a relevant contrast. Each element is important for the complete look.
