Fireplace in the kitchen

Introducing a fireplace into the kitchen might seem unconventional, but this trend is gaining increasing interest in the architecture world. What makes so many designers take this bold step?

The New Role of Kitchens in Open Spaces:

In modern homes, the kitchen often becomes a multifunctional space, seamlessly connected to the living room. A fireplace can smoothly unify these areas, creating a cohesive and modern environment.

Technology and Easy Integration:

Planika fireplaces, thanks to advanced BEV technology, do not require a chimney, making them easy to incorporate into any kitchen design. This innovative solution is increasingly chosen by architects seeking new possibilities in design.

Transcription of the interview with Binova

Aleksandra Nowicka-Piekarska (Planika): Hello Mirko, Hello. Today we are in the Binova showroom with whom Planika works and we want to talk a bit about the kitchen project and the path within. So if you can describe Binova a bit for us, but also the concept of this project we see here.

Mirko Messina (Binova): Perfect. So yes, Binova is a historic Italian brand born in Central Italy. For over 60 years, it has represented Italian excellence in the kitchen market. And not only that. In fact, as is the trend in this period, there is a tendency to unify spaces, thus making the kitchen an integral part of the house and increasingly connecting it with the living area. Indeed, as in this project, we have created a large column system which, through hidden systems, recreates a unique paneling that integrates perfectly with the living room furniture. As in this case, we have inserted a bioethanol fireplace that creates a real flame, thus heating and creating a symbol of convivial public and private spaces. Indeed, many of our clients request this to be included in their homes, in the living areas and dining rooms, and it is very easy to integrate as Planika, a brand of excellence in the bioethanol fireplace sector, guarantees very dynamic design. There are many available sizes of fireplaces that we can integrate into all our projects.

Aleksandra Nowicka-Piekarska (Planika): OK, perfect. So what was most important to you regarding the decision to use the Planika fireplace?

Mirko Messina (Binova): Regarding the Planika fireplace, the flexibility of the sizes that can be applied is very important. Also, the design is very beautiful and very clean, so it does not overshadow the rest of the project but integrates perfectly. And then, the technology with which it is made does not have particular odor emissions. The flame levels that can be used and everything make our clients very happy to have it in their homes.

Aleksandra Nowicka-Piekarska (Planika): OK, perfect. And regarding the whole design, was it easy to integrate?

Mirko Messina (Binova):Yes, it is very easy to integrate. Besides the technical sheets we use for design, it is very nice to insert and integrate it into our projects.

Aleksandra Nowcika-Piekarska (Planika):OK, thank you.

Mirko Messina (Binova):Thank you.
