for their thesis project at IED milan, riccardo randi, riccardo trabattoni, and dario distefano have designed a kitchen system called ‘satellite’. created for italian furniture manufacturer schiffini, the series is composed of a main core and complimentary modules that allow you to communicate with the interior of your house. this dispersion of units is capable of providing configurations that cater to multiple scenarios and users. each structure is constructed of bent aluminum sheet, making them customizable in terms of material and color, easy to produce, cost efficient, easy to produce, and straightforward to assemble. the work can serve as a location for wood ovens, barbecues, gardening and other cooking and outdoor activities.
