Designed in collaboration with Gordon Guillaumier, this is Phil the new outdoor kitchen from Italian company Ethimo.
Ethimo’s focus has always been on the creation of comfortable, open-air spaces that set the trend for quality outdoor living, utilising the creative spirit for which the company is known. The goal is to simplify the art of outdoor cooking, without compromising on aesthetics or functionality.
Phil is the design challenge met by Ethimo and Gordon Guillaumier that has seen the development of an unconventional design, thanks to its special ‘nomadic’ configuration which creates an original way to arrange and outdoor cooking environment. With an elegant, yet informal look, Phil is the essence of contemporary cooking with a relaxed environment with a high degree of individualisation and personalisation.
Whether located on a portico, patio, terrace, poolside or city balcony, this unusual element makes any setting, however small, easy to use and allows the kitchen area to be managed simply, functionally and quickly. Thanks to its sizes and technical features, Phil squeezes all the main kitchen activities into a compact ergonomic space, ensuring maximum functionality.
Constructively, Phil is stable and sturdy, and able to withstand weather and other elements, but it is made suitable for the home thanks to its “soft” and unconventional design.
95 cm in height and 75 cm in diameter, Phil is made up of a single cylindrical base in metal and is available in Olive Green and Sepia Black. With refined teak details, it comes in three possible configurations: with sink, induction hob and barbecue. These ‘round islands’ can co-exist with their different functions, creating circular movement and activities, or be used on their own.
The sink, complete with a handy work surface/top in teak, is fitted with fixed feet, while the two cooking options have cables and are also available on wheels, meaning they can easily be moved to where they are needed, emphasising the dynamic versatile character of this project.
With Phil, Ethimo and Gordon Guillaumier provide a new kitchen experience, creating a concept that is the perfect balance of freedom and formality, able to adapt to settings of different sizes and uses and the natural choice for completing open-air spaces.
