# Sand-Inspired Kitchenettes The Pedini Dune Kitchen Assumes the Curves of Seaside and Desert Soil By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-10-04 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pedini-dune-kitchen References: [furniturefashion](http://www.furniturefashion.com/dune-kitchen-cabinets-pedini-cooking-style/) & [pediniusa](http://www.pediniusa.com/products/kitchen/dune/) The culinary space -- often an area of chaos in the home -- becomes a much more serene space in the form of the island Pedini Dune Kitchen. The rectilinear geometries that are encouraged by your white goods and appliances are broken in favor of sinuous lines that can be found in nature. The [eco-friendly walnut wood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/legni-collection) reinforces this organic quality, though the client might choose a colorful textured lacquer as a finish instead. No matter the decision, the cupboard units embody the same [curvaceous surfaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/curved-cabinetry-collection) that wrap around the room and the cook for improved ergonomic circulation. No knobs or handles even interrupt the smoothness of the Pedini Dune Kitchen cabinet doors and drawers; instead, graspable grooves provide access to the spacious storage compartments. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 50% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Organic Kitchen Designs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create kitchen designs that incorporate natural shapes and materials to create a serene and ergonomic cooking space. - **Eco-friendly Cabinetry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop sustainable and environmentally conscious kitchen cabinet designs using materials like walnut wood and textured lacquer finishes. - **Smooth and Handle-free Kitchen Cabinets:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design kitchen cabinets with graspable grooves instead of knobs or handles, providing a sleek and seamless appearance. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Kitchen Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate organic shapes, eco-friendly materials, and handle-free cabinets into kitchen design concepts for a unique and appealing aesthetic. - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop eco-friendly manufacturing processes and materials for kitchen cabinetry, focusing on sleek and handle-free designs. - **Home Improvement:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce organic and nature-inspired kitchen designs that improve the functionality and ergonomics of cooking spaces while offering sustainable and stylish options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Luxe Grooved Versatile Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cesar.md) - [Fluid Topographic Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dune-table.md) - [Demure Desert Landscape Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dune-collection-by-monica-armani.md) - [Nature-Inspired Mesmerizing Sideboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/genipadu-sideboard.md) - [Freestanding Experimental Kitchens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/experimental-kitchens.md) - [Earthy Kitchen Cabinet Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/masterbrand-cabinets.md) - [Desert Dune-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nando-studio.md) - [Ai-Powered Recipe-Generating Appliance](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-kitchen-cosmo.md) - [Modern Tonal Cabinet Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/curved-cabinetry-collection.md)
