Riva 1920 presents La Cucina

07/05/2011

‘La Cucina'La Cucina is a Homage to Mediterranean Food and Beverage – is a homage to wood. It is a tribute to tradition, authenticity and true values through a modern eye.
The kitchen is a place of conviviality. It is the space to come together, to drink, to eat, to meet to share and to communicate. The kitchen is a most important area within Mediterranean homes. It is about warmth and joy.Passion for woodTheir passion for wood in its most natural form has brought Maurizio Riva and Matteo Thun working together for a long time. When talking about how to create a kitchen, it was agreed that it would be made from wood – it would have a fireplace, a water place and a food place – a centre for people to come together and eat.Re-used woodIt seemed natural to invite other partners to realize this kitchen as a collective project. Partners whose products also offer a sustainable approach and guarantee the highest quality in form and material. The centre point of the kitchen is made from wood from AHEC. Elements of the kitchen recycle the American red oak and walnut lumber used in the Wooden Beacons installation at Milan Design Week in April 2010, a joint venture with Matteo Thun, RIVA and AHEC.

As for good Italian Food, only the best and original ingredients were given to capture and to transfer
