MINIMAL. FEATURED IN THE TRANSFORMERS 3 MOVIE: THE BAD GUY`S KITCHEN


















MINIMAL’s cutting edge design featuring a high tech sliding countertop is the perfect fit for Ryan’s, contemporary kitchen in Transformers 3 - Dark of the Moon. With unique Italian sense of aesthetics and commitment to custom design, MINIMAL tailors a kitchen space that perfectly portrays the character’s personality: provocative for its sensual lightness and intimidating for its clean lines. Designed by Stefano Venier, the kitchen stems out as a full-relief sculpture in the middle of Ryan`s enviable apartment. The focal point of the room is the island, a unique example of technology, design and functionality. Through an electronic movement, the hand crafted Thermo Oak top can be either opened up to serve as an entertainment table or closed to hide the brushed stainless steel countertop, the soldered sink and the retractable faucet.
