KnIndustrie Presents Serving Trays in Milan
For Milano Design Week, KnIndustrie presented within KitcheN Milano space, in Via De Amicis 45 in Milan, a new collection of design serving trays, a proposal dedicated to table service and the timeless Lady Anne coffee maker in its most chic and refined version. Steel, glass and aluminum are the main
materials of KnIndustrie showcase for Fuorisalone, combined with the unique style that has always distinguished the brand.
Garçon, folded trays by Rodolfo Dordoni
In Rodolfo Dordoni collection of trays for KnIndustrie, the folded steel has a dual function: decorative and functional, that is to contain. The edge looks like a semi-cylinder with an essential design and a clean shape created by the completely smooth appearance of steel. The edge, leitmotif of the collection, represents the distinctive feature of the three serving trays, available in rectangular, square and pentagonal versions. The glossy or satin exterior is in contrast with the matt painted interior available in
different colors.
Shapeless, transparent bread bin
Glass, with its transparency and lightness, is back in KnIndustrie proposals for a design table in the name of minimalism and elegance, even for medium and small objects, but capable of catalysing the attention of diners.
Shapeless is the new bread bin in borosilicate glass, made from a folded and flattened cylinder.
Its particular production process, makes each item different from the other. knIndustrie wants to give importance to an accessory that is often not the protagonist of the table, adding it a unique design and style, thus giving value to the content, that is bread – a simple but important food.
Lady Anne total white
The iconic Lady Anne coffee maker by KnIndustrie, design Lara Caffi, dresses up in white. Made of aluminium, in stone washed finish in the classic version, it is now proposed in the elegant total white version to enrich the table with an object of great elegance and refinement, protagonist during breakfast time, after meal or at any time of the day, perfect to welcome guests in its renewed look.
The shape, which is inspired by the silver coffee sets of the eighteenth century, remains unchanged: the clean line of the body in the shape of a truncated cone is set off by the sinuosity of the ergonomically designed and heat-insulating handle, made of Bakelite with multiple curves, an ornamental element characterizing the project. On the lid the decorative knob always in Bakelite allows it to be easily opened. The circular base has a double bottom. Also Lady Anne “in white” is available in four cup version and it comes with a reducer filter.
