You will see that this completely transforms the experience.<\/p>\n

Design that follows the natural rhythm<\/h2>\n

To foster this atmosphere, the design of the surroundings plays a decisive role. The arrangement of the modules, the choice of materials, the integration of planting, pergolas or vertical elements that act as natural sound screens\u2026 everything helps to create an acoustically pleasant environment.<\/p>\n

At Novara, every kitchen is designed so that the outdoor space is not only functional but emotional. The choice of surfaces such as natural stone or stainless steel is not driven solely by technical criteria of durability, but also by their ability to blend into the surroundings without disturbing their rhythm. Q-XTREM\u00ae technology also adds something extra in this respect: resilient surfaces that allow the kitchen to be installed where nature takes over, without giving up the sophistication or the sensory peace the setting offers.<\/p>\n

Planning the invisible<\/h2>\n

Just as routes, workflows and lighting points are planned, sound can and should also be part of the design. Paving that dampens noise, a pergola that shelters from the wind, a worktop that does not reverberate\u2026 small touches that improve the whole experience. The aim is not to create silence, but a soundscape in keeping with what is happening.<\/p>\n

Cooking outdoors lets you reconnect with a more organic dimension of cooking. And that dimension can be heard too. That is why we argue that the sounds of nature should be regarded as an official ingredient, like wine with meat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Outdoor kitchens, and spring in particular, offer a great advantage: sounds become more refined, they dissipate and roam freely, as they should, reaching us in a far more natural way. Gone is the constant hum of appliances, voices bouncing off walls or traffic filtered through glass: now it is the breeze moving through the leaves, birds in the distance and the crackle of the fire itself and of the main ingredients. Then, of course, there are the guests, but we encourage you to crack the whip, if need be, to bring their volume down to a gentle French-style murmur, at least while you are cooking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1027,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[216],"tags":[],"sistema-categories":[],"class_list":["post-3436","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-inspo-en-gb"],"yoast_head":"\nSound
