About Oriental Lanting Serie de muebles de cocina

Oriental Lanting es una serie de muebles de cocina diseñada para favorecer la interacción entre los miembros de la familia. La distribución conecta la sala de estar, la zona de preparación de comidas ligeras, la cocina china y el área de lavado del balcón. Un mueble de doble cara cuenta con una abertura pasante en su centro que funciona como pasaplatos y ventana de interacción, de modo que los espacios quedan a la vez divididos y conectados. Las puertas de paso tipo corredor, con bisagras ocultas, disimulan la cocina y el balcón. Nuevos materiales de superficie y el termoprensado generan bordes curvos suaves y un aspecto de madera maciza.

Unique Properties: This series innovatively introduces the emotional interaction-oriented concept. On the basis of Chinese aesthetics, this series adopts an L-D-K-W linkage space layout with themed functional kitchen and balcony modules, connecting different spaces to meet family members' interaction needs and providing a natural and comfortable life experience.
Dimensions & Packaging: The pioneering living-kitchen dual-faced cabinet has a through-type structure at the center that acts as an interaction window. This design enables both space partitioning and linkage, a breakthrough compared to regular open-plan living-kitchen layouts. The walk-in corridor door with concealed hinges helps create a hidden walk-in professional kitchen and balcony spaces, linking the living-kitchen dual-faced cabinet. This creates interconnected L-D-K-W spaces, facilitating emotional interaction.
Tags: Healthy kitchen concept, LDKW themed space linkage, Social Zen-tea culture, Chinese-style aesthetic layout, Professional kitchen-balcony themed modules
Production Technology: SPL new materials and synchronized steel plate technology are utilized to give a visual and tactile experience akin to solid wood, creating a natural, calm, and elegant atmosphere. The high-frequency hot pressing technology is applied to form curved surfaces with soft arcs, which ensure a smooth space transition to enhance safety and beauty. Meanwhile, this series offers replicable standard modular components.
Design Challenge: Inspired by traditional Chinese Suzhou Gardens with framed views, this series applies the living-kitchen dual-faced themed functional cabinet and walk-in corridor doors with concealed hinges to link themed spaces and build hidden walk-in professional kitchen and balcony spaces. It addresses the pain point of multiple space linkage and creates an integrated, interactive, linked, and healthy Oriental aesthetic kitchen.
Research: This series aims to build healthy kitchen spaces through innovation in three aspects: interactive scenario space, humanized functional design, and scientific storage design. It skillfully integrates Chinese-style aesthetic design, creating a series of traditional Chinese-style living spaces and related products while delivering a more scientific and healthy lifestyle.
Inspiration: Inspired by traditional Chinese Suzhou Gardens, this series features innovative artistic scenes, securing harmony between humans and nature. The original living-kitchen dual-faced themed cabinet and walk-in corridor door with low-cost concealed hinges link four themed spaces: L (Zen Tea-themed living room), D (Light-dinner prep zone), K (Chinese kitchen cooking space), and W (Hidden walk-in balcony washhouse), creating a healthy kitchen to facilitate emotional interaction among family members.
Project Duration: The project finished in December 2024 in Guangzhou.
Operation Flow: The living-kitchen dual-faced cabinet combines multiple functions: food pass-through window, light-dinner prep zone, washing zone, item storage zone, etc. The balcony themed cabinet is divided into different zones according to functions and workflow, providing a convenient laundry experience. The Chinese kitchen space features golden circulation paths for efficient cooking and storage. The living room, Zen Tea-themed, offers a platform for physical and mental relief and friend meetings.
