Last month, Italian brand Boffi<\/a> launched its latest customizable kitchen product \u2014 a sleek and stylish new island by Zaha Hadid Design<\/a>. The distinct Cove Kitchen<\/a> is part of the Boffi_Code concept launched last year and the late architect\u2019s first collaboration on a full-size kitchen tool. A flawless piece of design, the unit has already been incorporated into the firm\u2019s highly anticipated residential high-rise in Manhattan\u2019s Chelsea neighborhood.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The freestanding unit is based on two of Zaha Hadid Architects\u2019<\/a> most famous built projects: MAXXI National Museum of XXI Century Arts<\/a> in Rome and the Heydar Aliyev Center<\/a> in Baku, Azerbaijan. The curvaceous forms of these monumental cultural projects influence the graceful outline of the singular Cove Kitchen. Its minimal yet bold design is characteristic of the late architect in form, functioning as a striking piece of furniture without commanding too much attention.<\/p>\n

The Cove Kitchen features a large countertop curved around a spacious hollow opening in the front where stools can be placed. Appliances, along with seamless drawers and cabinets fitted with storage containers, are integrated into the chef\u2019s side of the island, while a deep sink is embedded on top.<\/p>\n
