CEMENT<\/h2>\n<p>When talking about cement, we are talking about a product of nature that originates from stone and fire. It is a union of three natural materials, limestone sand and clay, that, when combined with water and other natural-borne materials, reaches a semi-solid state that allows it to be spread by hand on the piece of furniture in question, making each piece unique.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.rifra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/cucina-a-vista_04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"765\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>2. METAL<\/h2>\n<p>RiFRA reinvents the way a material that is practically everywhere -and has allowed humankind to literally evolve- is used in everyday life. This finish is created from a base of metal powder mixed with synthetic aggregates creating a semi-solid, which, again, permits the coating of the furniture to be done by hand.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about RiFRA&#8217;s natural finishes, click here: <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.rifra.com\/en\/metals-and-cement-on-point-trends-for-kitchens-in-2017\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/blog.rifra.com\/en\/metals-and-cement-on-point-trends-for-kitchens-in-2017\/<\/a> <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.rifra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/cucina-a-vista_05.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"765\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RiFRA presents the FLY model island in metal finish, combined with an antique wooden snack, whose materiality spreads warmth to your environment.<\/p>\n<h2>3. STONE \/ CERAMIC STONE<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.rifra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/cucina-a-vista_06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"765\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RiFRA proposes the new KUBE model covered in Ceramic Stone Calacatta Oro. Stone shows its ability to deal with any material, even making itself light and giving personality to the whole environment.<\/p>\n<p>RiFRA has chosen five finishes, five natural marbles and their variations in slabs of extremely thin ceramic that allows to achieve large measurements in length and width. The five natural marbles you\u2019ll be able to find are: gold calacatta, noir desir, grey savoy, diamond cream and statue white.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of a linear open kitchen, on the other hand, the space available can be used to integrate all the modern withdraw able and swivel mechanisms that make it possible to offer truly excellent storage capacity and comfort conditions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.rifra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/cucina-a-vista_07.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"765\" height=\"auto\" \/><br \/>\nKitchen model LINE<\/p>\n<p>The dialogue between the kitchen and the living room takes place thanks to the use of open solutions, bases, shelves that create continuity with the furniture of the living area and allow you to display books, objects and decorative elements that make the atmosphere representative of your style.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.rifra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/cucina-a-vista_08.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"765\" height=\"auto\" \/><br \/>\nKitchen model LINE<\/p>\n<p>Laura Spinelli<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.rifra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/cucina-a-vista_09.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"765\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Would you like to create your own RiFRA kitchen but don&#8217;t have a shop nearby?
