CASACOR 2024, the most important exhibition of architecture, design, art and landscaping in the Americas, had as its motto "Now is a gift". In this context, Purposeful Kitchen was presented, an 86 m² space developed by designer Kathy Cárdenas and architect Caroline Feldman at the Escuela Climática de Varones del Puericultorio Augusto Pérez Araníbar, in Lima, Peru. Conceived as a sophisticated, functional and warm environment, the kitchen invites to live the present from the senses, giving life to a space that creates stories and connects design with emotion.
To achieve this atmosphere, Masisa melamine panels were used. The Bonfire design, with a deep wood tone, natural texture and semi-matte finish, was key in the main furniture, providing elegance and character. In the chef's studio, designed as a creative inspiration area, the Santorini and Vison Texstone designs were incorporated, whose combination provides visual continuity, warmth and sophistication. Santorini stands out for its light tones and subtle woody texture; Vison Texstone for its finish that blends mineral and textile. Together, they reinforce the project's narrative and its balance between aesthetics and functionality.
