The Carattere is a Scavolini collection specially designed for the aesthete of our time, wherever you may be in the world
As we spend more time inside the house, we find that the kitchen has become one of the most vital parts of the home. Most of us have begun renovating spaces, not just for show, but to create an environment that can elevate anyone's mood.

However, with this much focus on elegance, people often forget the value of functionality.
Fortunately, those who seek both will find that Scavolini's new project, the Carattere kitchen, is not merely crafted with a focus on sophistication but also on functionality.

Even you can maintain having a spruced up kitchen with Carattere, beginning with the frame door.
The door strikes a balance between classical proportions and contemporary taste, and you can make it your own by choosing colours that would either make the frame door stand out or match the kitchen walls.

There's an option to have them in a matt lacquered finish in colours such as Prestige White, Dove Grey and Iron Grey. A veneered version is also available in five delicate colours like Cotton Ash and amber Ashes Ash.
For others who prefer to create different combinations, you may choose plain doors that are offered in the same shades or a walnut veneered version in three shades.

You'd be surprised to know that the handles—a detail that should never be overlooked—can elevate the overall appearance of your kitchen.
If you prefer one that would appear as an elegant graphical element, you might want to consider having the new handle which wonderfully highlights the size of the frame. Otherwise, you may opt for a grip built into the frame door for a simpler and unadulterated design.

If you have a limited kitchen space, you can still maximise areas in style with features that can both help with organisation and provide functionality.
The collection allows you to have the large hood aligned with the new wall units, avoid clutter and hang your pans on the steel shelves (which are supported by tie rods fixed to the ceiling), and spruce up the pantry using illuminated magnetic wall panels and the switch cupboard.

When it's time to do the dishes, you can use the elegant yet innovative Amber Avenue Stoneware which has a built-in washing area and hob.
To help you find your ingredients and other cooking essentials, there are lighting features that are available both inside the wall and tall units and in the wall panel between base units and shelves.
Regardless of the size of your space, the Carattere kitchen from Scavolini will certainly help create an enhanced environment that you'd want to work in for as long as you wish.
