b2 Werkschrank
Architonic ID: 1158954
The kitchen tool cabinet has a place for everything that is regularly used in the kitchen such as, pots, pans and kitchen tools as well as basic ingredients, spices and crockery- but only the necessary items, so that everything can be in full view. The typical kitchen tool cabinet can be fitted with full-depth slatted shelves and with one or two aluminum frame storage doors. Upon request, half "S” cabinets can be supplied that can be combined with each other. The 16 cm-deep doors provide additional storage space that can be used to maximum effect thanks to the b2 interior organization system.
Concept
bulthaup b2 turns kitchens into workshops with an abundance of freedom to move around and with a unique organizational principle.
Based on the philosophical origins of every living space – the fire and water point – bulthaup joined forces with Eoos to develop an open and mobile kitchen that can be added to and put together to suit the individual. bulthaup b2 is the logical continuation of the kitchen workbench. It defines the "kitchen workshop" in its original meaning – comprising a workbench + kitchen tool cabinet + appliance housing cabinet: The workbench for the fire and water point; the kitchen tool cabinet for crockery, cooking implements, spices and food; the appliance housing cabinet for the oven, dishwasher and refrigerator. In this, bulthaup b2 follows the principle of “clearing away anything superfluous”: All that remains is value – the best materials, the best tools, the best raw materials and the best crockery.
