Passionate about gastronomy, design experts, and kitchen specialists, we share our tips, design recommendations, and favorite inspirations with you!
THE INVISIBLE DOOR: DISCREET ELEGANCE
In a contemporary kitchen layout, certain details make all the difference. The invisible door—also called a flush door—is a perfect example.
It allows you to elegantly conceal a walk-in pantry, a garage exit, or access to a laundry room, while maintaining perfect continuity with the surrounding cabinetry.
Designed to align perfectly with the kitchen cabinets or blend seamlessly into a paneled wall, the invisible door extends the lines of the cabinetry without any visible frame, molding, or traditional handle. When closed, it disappears completely into the overall design—a choice that is both aesthetic and subtle.
The effect is even more spectacular when the door is:
Full-height, up to the ceiling, enhancing verticality and architectural elegance
Equipped with a push-to-open system, for handle-free opening with a simple gesture
This combination creates a perfect balance between sleek design and understated functionality.
STAINING: A KNOW-HOW THAT RESPECTS THE WOOD GRAIN!
An artisanal method, mastered by Cuisines Steam to sublimate each essence with precision.
At Cuisines Steam, each project is shaped with precision, passion and high standards. Our kitchen cabinets are not simply manufactured, they are meticulously designed and finished according to rigorous processes, inherited from artisanal know-how and enhanced by years of field experience.
In this article, we introduce you to the different finishing techniques that we master in the workshop. Today, we focus on staining, a rigorous method that enhances the wood grain like no other. Our meticulous, consistent approach makes all the difference in the final result.
THE HANDLE, A DELICATE CHOICE!
At Steam, when it comes to designing a kitchen, we firmly believe that every detail matters. This meticulous attention, a hallmark of quality craftsmanship, is a true source of pride for us. Our passion for finishing is reflected in breathtaking results.
