A bronze color kitchen stands out for the elegance of its lacquered surfaces, paired with marble-effect countertops and tech-inspired LED lighting.
A story of materials and light reflections, where the main protagonist is an island kitchen with bold chromatic contrasts.
The Island Layout and Functional Elements
Parallel volumes define the kitchen layout of this penthouse in Val Seriana, designed by Studio Architetto Mario Cassinelli.
The first block follows the perimeter wall, developing as a low unit with a spacious worktop. At its center, an undermount single-basin stainless steel sink aligns perfectly with the window overlooking the valley. To allow easy window opening, a professional-style pull-down faucet in chrome steel with a black spout has been installed.
This first block features a combination of drawers in varying heights and cabinets with internal shelves, ensuring a functional and well-organized space.
On the opposite side, the full-height column wall extends, with the first cabinets housing a built-in Liebherr refrigerator featuring a large storage capacity.Next to it, column ovens and pantry cabinets with internal shelves provide additional functionality. The lower doors beneath the oven column serve as a decorative boiserie, cleverly concealing a section of the wall with a different depth.
Positioned in parallel at the center of these two volumetric blocks, the kitchen island takes center stage, enhanced by a Sahara Noir marble-effect snack counter. This element harmonizes with the adjacent dining table through its material choice.
At the heart of the island, an induction cooktop with an integrated extractor sits atop practical storage drawers arranged in two blocks, along with a cabinet featuring internal shelves.
The space is completed by a glass-enclosed wine cellar, featuring bronze-painted metal shelves set against a glossy white background.
This element seamlessly connects with the living area of this stylish loft, echoing the kitchen’s signature color palette and material choices.
The Aesthetic Identity of the Kitchen: Between Bronze-Colored Cabinets and Tech Lighting
What defines this bronze color kitchen with a contemporary design is undoubtedly its metallic effect, which stands out from a standard lacquer finish due to its ability to reflect light.
Thanks to the presence of metallic powder in the lacquer composition, the surfaces gain an elegant shimmering effect. Depending on the viewing angle, the color shifts from a deep, almost black hue to golden reflections that deliberately echo the warm veining of the Sahara Noir marble-effect snack counter.
The choice of a Lasa-effect stoneware countertop also plays a key role in shaping the kitchen’s aesthetic. Delicate gray veins elegantly stretch across a white background, while on the island, the thin-profile countertop continues seamlessly down the side, embracing the central volume and visually enclosing the space.
What gives this bronze color kitchen a tech-inspired touch is undoubtedly the lighting design.
LED elements intersect across the ceiling, creating dynamic, visually striking segments. Near the back wall and the drop ceiling edge facing the living area, these lights extend vertically, appearing to embrace and illuminate the entire space.
Breaking this interplay of luminous lines is the colorful Martini sign on the back wall- a bold pop-style accent that adds energy and personality.
The bronze color kitchen brings both elegance and modernity to interior spaces. Its shimmering surface reveals endless chromatic nuances, giving the kitchen a dynamic and ever-changing personality. It pairs perfectly with marble-effect countertops, complementing their tones, as seen in this project by Studio Architetto Mario Cassinelli.
The metallic lacquer finish has become increasingly popular in recent years, adding character and sophistication to interiors. For more projects featuring metallic lacquer finishes, explore this apartment’s kitchen in bronze and champagne or this multifunctional kitchen in anthracite gray.
