Italian contemporary
kitchen furniture maker Modulnova Design has entered the Australian market after
establishing a reputation in Europe for ultramodern kitchen design.
Modulnova’s
collection showcases clever and dynamic space and storage solutions created using
a range of luxurious manmade and natural materials. Launched in 1988 by the
renowned Presotto family in Italy, Modulnova is recognised for visual
sophistication and elegance in kitchen design with a highly progressive
approach to finishes. The Modulnova brand is well known for the use of materials
ranging from cement resin and porcelain sheeting to natural stones, treated
metals and oiled and stained timbers.
Cemento and Kerlite
are two of the most popular finishes within the Modulnova range.
Cemento is a new
resin technology that allows all surfaces to be coated in a 3mm liquid cement
layer dried to a silky smooth, highly durable finish. Similar to natural
cement, Cemento exhibits an industrial look with a high degree of texture and
imperfection while providing a very functional, practical finish for a high
traffic area such as the kitchen.
Kerlite is a lightweight
porcelain slab material lighter than aluminium, more durable than stone and
only 3mm thick. The multi-layered material can be used to create a sleek 1cm thick
panel to deliver a uniform aesthetic for benches, sinks, drawers and doors.
Kerlite is available in a vast choice of hues, and offers resistance against
stains, scratches and fire.
Modulnova’s sleek
cabinetry takes storage to a new level of functionality and aesthetics by
providing sufficient space to conceal major appliances such as ovens and
refrigerators as well as fully realising the concept of kitchen cabinetry as
beautiful furniture.
Modulnova is one of
the brands under The Nest 45 umbrella, a completely new approach to innovative
Italian furniture design for the kitchen, bathroom, living room and bedroom housed
in the impressive heritage-listed Design Precinct at Cockatoo Island.
