Fronteriors works in collaboration with the American interior design firm Prime Projects on the new Curved cabinetry collection. The details are defined by its arc shapes and decorative grooves along the edge of the front. This also follows into a rounded edge square shape closer to the top.
The collection is notably compatible with IKEA's cabinets, including the Sektion, Metod, Besta and Pax cabinets This way, it allows users to optimize their accessibility and overall modularity of the products in a way that does not compromise their existing aesthetics. The studio explains the design, "With its gently contoured profile, Curved offers a refined alternative to traditional flat-panel cabinetry, creating depth and movement in kitchens, wardrobes and media units."
