Things like cabinets, kitchen apparatus and storage areas are traditionally placed on top and around the bench, but the new range assimilates these objects and structures into newly assigned spaces or 'islands'.
The Cappellini Salone at the 2014 Milan Design Week presents striking products designed by some of the most famous names from the furniture industry.
The collection, currently on display at the Milan Furniture Fair 2014, includes an armchair and a sofa, both of which are available in a couple of variations.
The collection is inspired by Mediterranean designs from the sixties, when furniture was created to complete the attractive terraces of the Mediterranean, and its tourist explosion.
