Pininfarina

Headquartered across Turin, Munich, and Miami, Pininfarina translates aerodynamic vehicle styling into architecture through sweeping, inward-curving rooflines, floating cantilevered volumes, and continuous perimeter cove lighting embedded along exterior slab edges. This collection provides a direct reference when detailing continuous edge lighting along fluid floor plates, integrating cantilevered viewing platforms into marine superstructures, or balancing technical testing apparatuses with warm interior materials.

Open plan modern kitchen and dining interior featuring slatted timber ceiling and floor-to-ceiling glass walls by Pininfarina.

A high-end residential interior precedent demonstrating the integration of a slatted timber ceiling with integrated lighting over a minimalist kitchen and dining pavilion.

What we like about this project
The kitchen island features a secondary cantilevered natural wood block resting atop the smooth solid composite counter.

Geometry
Linear open-plan layout dominated by a large monolithic kitchen island parallel to a full-height glass facade and an aligned dining table.
Facade system
Full-height black-framed multi-panel sliding glass door system.
Structural guess
Post and beam construction with large span glazed openings and reinforced concrete slab floor.
Spatial scale
Generous residential scale with high ceilings and wide span openings.
Lighting
Integrated linear slot lighting within the slatted timber ceiling combined with bright natural daylight entering from full-height perimeter glazing.
Atmosphere
Sophisticated, calm, and warm due to the rich timber ceiling contrasting with clean neutral surfaces.
Environmental context
Suburban or countryside residential setting with visible exterior landscape and retaining wall through glazing.
Spatial experience
The space feels expansive and unified, flowing smoothly from the interior kitchen zone outward to the landscape through expansive sliding glass.
Composition rhythm
Strong horizontal ceiling slats echo the linear arrangement of the kitchen island and perimeter windows.
