Novara at C·Next Designers EMEA 2026: sharing our vision of outdoor design
Taking part as a Cosentino partner at C·Next Designers EMEA 2026 gave us the chance to share our vision of outdoor design with architects and designers from some of the most prominent studios on the international scene.
From 13 to 16 October, we were in Almería for a gathering that brought together architecture, interior design and design professionals from Europe and the Middle East. Under the theme Design to Transform, we shared ideas and perspectives on the role of design in transforming the spaces we live in.
As part of our participation, we presented LAVA, our new collection designed by the Barcelona studio CirculoCuadrado, which marks another step in Novara's evolution towards a brand offering complete design for outdoor spaces.
LAVA: a unified architectural ecosystem
During the event, José Luis Lozano, Co-founder & Commercial Director of Novara, spoke about the brand's evolution and presented the concept behind LAVA: going beyond the outdoor kitchen to create an architectural ecosystem in which kitchens, tables, benches and sofas share a single language of forms and proportions.
The collection features glazed natural lava surfaces and hidden induction technology, building the cooking function into the design itself. Its rounded forms and the subtle variations of the glaze give it an organic, Mediterranean character, balanced by the precision of its structure.
Presenting LAVA to architects and designers from different markets let us share a new way of thinking about the outdoors, where every element forms part of a coherent architectural whole.
A shared vision of design with professionals from around the world
Beyond the LAVA presentation, C·Next Designers EMEA gave us a space to talk with professionals from international studios, exchange experiences and explore new opportunities to collaborate.
Taking part as a Cosentino partner strengthens Novara's commitment to architecture, innovation and the development of new ways of thinking about outdoor spaces.
We share a conviction that guides the evolution of our systems: the outdoor kitchen is part of the architectural project from the moment it is conceived. Its proportions, materials and functionality must respond both to the setting and to the way it is lived in.
Under our Inspiring Outdoor Living concept, we continue to move towards a 360° vision of outdoor design, where architecture, materials, technology and experience come together in a single space.
Thank you to Cosentino for having Novara as a partner at this edition, and to all the professionals with whom we had the chance to share ideas and experiences.
