The idea of the kitchen/workshop is a recurring theme in the history of interior architectures: it was part of the research into the existenz minimum, the minimum living space, which generations of artists have tried their hands at defining. Like in a perfect mechanism, each minimal space performs its own function, the superflous is eliminated. The b2 kitchen elaborates this concept and, through a few specialist units (workbench, column, container for household appliances), a single open solution is achieved, which can be modified to tste: images, rituals, legends contained within just a few, unique elements.
