MINISTONE

Winner of the kitchen competition “lines in the block”
Jury András Palffy, Kilian Kada 

The 100-year-old Croatian tradition of Kamenica clay pots served as the guiding idea of the "Ministone". Literally a small building block, inconspicuous - and at the same time immovable and irreplaceable. The missing building block in every garden and on every terrace. The "Ministone" combines compact functionality with an unbeatable design appearance, which corresponds to the stone as a material like no other outdoor kitchen. Originally conceived as a combination of sandstone and basalt, the first series focusses on an almost tre-through labratorit, from which the kitchen seems to be carved out. Perfection with the appearance of lightness and resistance in equal measure. For the fronts resp. The cover plate is used by the CEL system. A layer of stone about two millimetres thin is glued to a CEL carrier plate, which is very light. This is how the effect of a whole building block is created. "Ministone" exactly.

The basic system of the outdoor kitchen concept consists of the meeting of "soft" (sandstone) and "hard" (basalt). The characteristics of the sandstone as a soft, easy-to-work stone is emphasised in that all functional parts that are needed for a kitchen are chiselled out of it and whose edges are left raw, untreated. The free areas preserved in this way are filled with the hard stone basalt.
