What do a luxurious high-end handbag and a kitchen have in common?  Give up?  Fendi! One of  the most impressive exhibits I viewed earlier this year at EuroCucina in Milan was the one featuring Fendi.  As you can imagine, a show like EuroCucina (a part of the even larger Salone Internazionale del Mobile) encompasses pretty much everything you could ever think  of when it comes to kitchen design.  Not only that, I saw things I've never imagined in my wildest dreams!  The Fendi's Casa Ambiente Cucina line fits squarely in that category. Styling can be described as elegant and sophisticated with details that call to mind to a fancy buckle or luxurious lining on your favorite expensive bag.  Speaking of linings, I was impressed with the cabinet interiors too.  In this case beauty isn't only skin deep it extends to what's inside.  This includes clear (yes CLEAR) roll outs and LED illumination which activates when you open the door or drawer. Fendi Kitchens made its debut at Salone two years ago with its first line of kitchen designs known as Ambienta Cucina, produced for them by SCIC, a high-end Italian kitchen manufacturer.The Fendi exhibit was kept strictly under wraps, no peeking from outside and once you were cleared to enter photography was verboten! Big burly bouncer type guys were on hand to enforce the no pic policy.  Sadly I witnessed one enthusiastic viewer caught in the act.  She was made to show her phone and delete all photos in presence of bouncer! I thought the whole point of showing at a trade show was to garner publicity, no?Fendi Casa Ambiente Cucina can be ordered in the U.S. exclusively through the Luxury Living Group  in  Los Angeles, Miami, and New York. Their offerings are truly a marriage of quality and fine design  Check out Kitchens for Living On the Road to view all my pics and comments from Eurocucina 2014 and more!
