Why an oval kitchen?
Oval kitchen cabinets and countertops can be a unique and stylish addition to a kitchen. The curved shape of the cabinets and countertop can add a sense of flow and movement to the space, and can be a nice contrast to the straight lines and angles of traditional rectangular cabinets and countertops. Oval kitchen cabinets and countertops can also be a practical choice, as they can provide extra storage space and can be easier to access than traditional cabinets with corners.

A beautiful, impressive and spacious U-shaped kitchen, for individualists with a bright character and an affinity for the modern dynamic lifestyle. The colors are skillfully combined with the kitchen work area, and the beautiful printed glass is an effective and stylish accent.
