Cavrois.
Warmth, calculated.
ARCHITECTED — one architect. One kitchen. One complete system.
Villa Cavrois. Robert Mallet-Stevens. Roubaix, 1932.
Modern architecture that was warm. Geometric precision producing domestic comfort. Not despite the architecture.
Through it.
Horizontal emphasis through material treatment.
Binary contrast — dark wood against light stone — unified by thin metal framework. Details that punctuate rather than decorate. Every element composed.
Nothing arbitrary.
CAVROIS translates these propositions to the kitchen. Not the style. The intelligence.
Three forms.
One commitment.
