MUT Design Uses Copper, Marble And Ash For "Seductive" Freestanding Kitchen

Spanish MUT Design Studio has created modular kitchen furniture from materials commonly found in the home elsewhere.



Float MUT Design Collection comprises a kitchen island, a closet, cabinet, a shopping portion and a room divider.

By creating a system with more flexibility, and the use of materials such as copper, ash and marble, designers hoped to create a kitchen fit its contemporary role as "the heart of the home".



"Our goal was to create a collection that broke the barriers between the living room and kitchen - open space was our starting point," founder MUT Design Dezeen Alberto Sanchez said. "We wanted to create a collection of aesthetic kitchen, more akin to the living spaces of the kitchen."

"They live in a time when kitchens are again given central place in our homes. The Float collection stands a radically innovative approach, hoping to return to the kitchen its status as a fully habitable space."

The island is designed to be the main food preparation area. A marble sink sits on top of a copper column housed within a framework of ash. Drawers and trays are removable for easy access to the tools of both sides, which enables multiple people use the space at the same time.



A large closet - designed for appliances and other kitchen paraphernalia - full kitchenettes.



In addition, the glass cabinet and buying the bridging portion roles traditionally held by the kitchen and furniture for the room. Both are made from ash and powder-coated steel, with the addition of a copper tray low level. The room divider provides a way to delineate the two spaces without completely separating them.



"I wanted to work together objects but also wanted to be independent, so that ultimately, the decision on how to combine user-dependent," Sanchez said.



"Our intention was to recover an attractive format and seductive for a classic and noble material such as wood, thus giving the final product a strong personality and authenticity."



All items are handmade in Spain and are designed to be folded for delivery. Previous projects include the design MUT hexagonal tile cement designed to mimic the psychedelic patterns seen through a kaleidoscope.
