A Corinthian kitchen begins with the architecture and the people who use it—not a catalogue or a house style.

Storage, circulation, proportion and material are resolved together. The result should feel inevitable in its room and improve through daily use.

Measured in use

From the whole room
to the hand.

Cabinetry earns its place through the things handled every day: a drawer that runs well, a work surface at the right height, storage where it is needed.

  1. 01

    Plan the movement

    Cooking, gathering and passing through should work without compromise.

  2. 02

    Resolve the storage

    What is used, where it belongs and how it is reached shape the cabinetry.

  3. 03

    Make it belong

    Scale, openings and existing architecture establish the final proportions.

Plans are useful, but a location and a clear description are enough for a first conversation.
