Bijou has always been an 'evergreen' model: versatile, customisable, durable, with numerous configuration possibilities. ARAN presents us with a wide range of materials, finishes and colours, combined and processed with the utmost care and technical expertise, thus enriching its collections with new elements and solutions.
With a strong visual impact, the composition in Grés Cava Noir Desir and HPL laminated Wood Oak Barrique by Bijou is articulated in the space, creating absolute continuity with the living area. An emblematic feature is the door adopted for the modules, island and columns, which features an internal - and therefore invisible - frame made of aluminium and 18 mm thick, on which a panel of only 4 mm is mounted.
A technical solution that makes the door light but extraordinarily strong. A different choice for the wall units in the living area, which feature the Jhon chassis in black aluminium: in this case it is visible, and the glass is inserted into the channel of the extruded profile. The operational fulcrum of the composition is the island, which catches the eye with its decorative 'marble effect' detail and marked functionality: while stoneware is already a material that lends itself well to use in the kitchen, thanks to its waterproof and resistant characteristics, the design also allows for an unusual management of space. The open shelf obtained from the back of the island in fact becomes a convenient support point as well as a base for the snack top, 'lightened' at the end by a transparent glass support.
Thanks to an unexpected material language and innovative technical solutions, different market segments can find in Bijou a response to ever-changing tastes and needs, while also being able to count on the quality of a 100% product Made in Italy and on the entire production capacity of ARAN Kitchens.
