The Grass Rear Anti-Tip System is engineered to ensure that only a single drawer can be opened at a time, locking the remaining drawers securely in place until the opened drawer is closed. This effective mechanical system employs a series of interconnected locking actuators mounted to a central spine at the back of the cabinet, guaranteeing a robust and reliable connection.

Constructed from a durable combination of plastic, aluminum and steel, the system eliminates the need for additional counterweights, thereby reducing shipping costs and maintaining the drawer’s original extension. Moreover, the Grass Anti-Tip System can be seamlessly integrated during the manufacturing process or retrofitted onto existing cabinetry, offering unmatched flexibility.

The system’s versatile component kit allows for a variety of mounting options, enabling custom installations. It is broadly compatible with undermount slides, soft-close slides and drawers without slides. The system efficiently mounts in the 31.75mm (1 ¼-in.) gap between the drawer box and the carcass. It offers flexible installation options, whether during or after cabinet fabrication, and can be used with or without the aluminum spine. The system can also be manually unlocked to allow for drawer removal if necessary and supports up to 50 pounds of pull force.

While the use of tip-over restraints may reduce the risk of tip-over, it does not eliminate it entirely. Proper adult supervision is essential, and heavy items should be placed in the lowest drawers.

Industry trend reports continue to highlight the growing preference for painted and matte cabinet finishes in contemporary kitchens. Lacquer surfaces have gained popularity among designers for their ability to deliver precise color, smooth architectural lines and durable performance in everyday use. With its emphasis on clean lines, layered materials and integrated planning, the Boston collection expands Novalina’s growing portfolio of kitchens designed for the U.S. market.

A Study in Material Balance

Boston combines satin lacquer cabinetry with warm walnut‑effect elements, creating a layered palette that balances modern minimalism with natural warmth. In the collection’s signature composition, blue‑gray lacquer fronts contrast with vertical wood elements, while a recessed grip ledge profile reinforces the kitchen’s uninterrupted geometry.

The result is a kitchen that reads more like integrated architecture than furniture, visually calm yet rich in material contrast. The restrained palette allows surrounding materials such as stone countertops, lighting and flooring to play a stronger role in the overall composition of the space.

Designed Around Everyday Living

Behind Boston’s minimal exterior lies a carefully structured planning system designed to support the way kitchens are used throughout the day. Floor‑to‑ceiling cabinetry maximizes storage while maintaining a unified visual front. An integrated pantry keeps provisions close at hand while preserving the visual clarity of the main kitchen space.

Interior organization systems bring structure to everyday routines. Flexible drawer inserts and real‑wood flex boxes help organize utensils, cookware and pantry items, while features such as a breakfast cabinet, integrated storage walls and a dedicated robot vacuum garage reflect the growing role of thoughtful planning in contemporary kitchens.

Open shelving integrated into the island and tall cabinetry allows designers to balance display and concealment, creating moments where cookbooks, ceramics or personal objects can soften the overall architectural composition.

Precision Engineering from Germany

Boston cabinetry from Novalina is manufactured in Herrieden, Germany, by Schüller Möbelwerk GmbH and built with the precision associated with German cabinetry engineering. The lacquered fronts feature a durable matte surface designed for everyday use, while reinforced edges help maintain the crisp lines that define the collection’s minimalist aesthetic.

While produced in Germany, Boston is designed to integrate seamlessly with American kitchen layouts and appliance standards, allowing designers to bring European kitchen architecture into a wide range of residential projects.

When designing kitchens and baths, balancing accessible storage with high-end style is a constant challenge. Felicitas Lechner, marketing manager for Hettich America, recently shared insights on our “From the Tap” podcast into a product turning heads – and cabinets – in the industry. The FurnSpin was named the 2025 KBB Kitchen Product of the Year and completely redefines how we approach traditional cabinetry.

Evolving Beyond the Lazy Susan

Born from the success of Hettich’s appliance-focused ComfortSpin, the FurnSpin takes rotational storage to the next level. Instead of an internal spinning shelf sitting inside a static box, the entire cabinet body rotates 180 degrees on its own axis. With a simple push, closed storage effortlessly transforms into open shelving. This synchronized swivel movement eliminates the physical limitations of sliding, folding or hinged doors, helping designers maximize square footage in tight or uniquely shaped spaces.

Unmatched Aesthetic Versatility

From an aesthetic standpoint, the FurnSpin system offers total creative freedom. Because the hardware only requires attachments at the top and bottom of the unit, cabinet makers can build the rotating body out of nearly any material. As long as the unit has the freestanding clearance to swivel, it can seamlessly integrate into luxury projects.

A Bright Future for FurnSpin

For designers eager to see what is next, Hettich is preparing a new iteration that brings built-in brilliance to the mechanism. A forthcoming illuminated version will feature automatic lighting activated by the swivel motion, complete with completely concealed cable management for a flawless, modern finish.

KBB Product Awards

As Lechner noted, earning recognition through prestigious competitions like the KBB Product Awards plays a massive role in building brand trust and highlighting these industry-shifting innovations. The KBB Product Awards program celebrates excellence across people, projects and products, offering a platform for designers and manufacturers to showcase their most impactful ideas. For designers, awards like these signal best-in-class innovation and provide an ever-expanding toolkit to bring brilliant client visions to life.

Previewed during Milan Design Week 2026 at the brand’s flagship store, Virgola is conceived as a project centered on the individual and their way of inhabiting space.

The defining feature of this new domestic architecture is the curve, both a structural and ergonomic principle that traces a soft, almost calligraphic geometry. By removing the fragmentation of corners, the composition replaces the full stop with a more natural pause.

Within the curved section of the worktop, a sink is seamlessly integrated. Crafted in the same porcelain stoneware as the countertop, the solution ensures visual and material continuity, creating a fluid surface with no interruption between top and basin.

The result of a highly precise manufacturing process that eliminates visible joints, this feature meets elevated standards both aesthetically and hygienically. The washing area becomes a multifunctional sculptural element, further enhanced by dedicated accessories that expand its practical potential.

The curved stoneware itself marks a significant technological step forward, opening new possibilities both in formal research and in performance.

The integrated snack island develops as a natural extrusion of the main monolith, a sculptural presence that organizes the space while amplifying its convivial dimension. Here, the “comma” also becomes a response to a logic of material efficiency, reducing superfluous components and optimizing resources within a production vision attentive to both form and substance.

Just as technical precision is essential to grammar, technology in the kitchen is held to equally high standards. High-tech stoneware surfaces, high-performance materials and finishes articulate a language of durability, resistance and quality. Aran Cucine’s green philosophy is embedded throughout the project through the use of FSC-certified woods and water-based paints with ultra-low VOC emissions that define an approach placing domestic well-being and industrial responsibility at its core.

Following the principle of “being design,” Virgola expresses a form inspired by the cycles of nature, capable of bringing a new balance of punctuation to space. In doing so, it restores a sentimental, responsible and deeply contemporary dimension to the everyday gesture, transforming the kitchen into an open sentence, a place to inhabit and experience.

Created to answer the growing demand for understated elegance, Egger’s Feelwood Oakgrain brings a refined matte look paired with a noticeably deep, realistic texture. Its matte finish eliminates gloss points and closely replicates the appearance of a matte oiled veneer, both visually and to the touch.

Synchronized with the brand’s Casella Oak decor series, this new surface allows designers to share the authenticity of real wood while maintaining the sustainability and reliability of wood-based materials. Egger has added two new woodgrains to the collection. Sand is warm, airy and effortlessly timeless — perfect for open, calming spaces. Marone (pictured) is deep, rich and grounded — ideal for sophisticated, contemporary interiors.

This new iteration integrates an additional module into the system, expanding its compositional possibilities while reinforcing its visual coherence. A design evolution that moves beyond the perimeter of the island, extending its vocabulary to tall units, wall cabinets and wall-mounted base units. 

With Tangram, surfaces become a field of research and are shaped through curves with variable radii, at times paired with fixed-radius curves, from which organic and unpredictable geometries emerge. This choice moves beyond the concept of a repeatable form to construct a system of combinable modules capable of generating ever-changing configurations. The result is a fluid, dynamic language in which each composition retains its own individuality while remaining instantly recognizable.

Behind the collection’s apparent formal simplicity lies a complex and rigorous development process, involving experimentation, prototyping and continuous testing. The construction of the curved doors, in particular, requires the bonding of multiple layers, meticulously calibrated to ensure long-term stability and durability. The project’s complexity is reflected in an in-depth study of materials and surfaces: each responds differently to the shaping process, making careful fine-tuning essential. This path has been developed in close synergy between designers, research and development, and the production chain, where expertise and sensibility converge to translate research into tangible quality. 

Tangram is presented in a new configuration that highlights the dialogue between form and material through a carefully balanced interplay of volumes and colors. The tall units are finished in Anodyc Jaipur red lacquer with Groove doors, a sequence of vertically milled grooves with an irregular rhythm that softens the perception of junctions between modules, delivering a continuous overall image. 

The hue, inspired by the layered chromatic tones of the architecture of the Indian city from which it takes its name, interacts with light to add depth and dynamism to the surfaces. The island in Seta Lacquer, topped with Breccia Sarda marble, creates a harmonious contrast with the vertical structure. The worktop introduces Palmier, a new edge profile that expands the existing range of finishes. Completing the composition are the Oi handles by García Cumini in a bronze finish.

Designed by Alberto Torsello, AlterEgo originated as an extension of the Ego kitchen. It adopts aesthetic codes inspired by 1950s design and translates them into an extra storage system that expands the compositional possibilities of both domestic and contract environments. 

The AlterEgo doors, now also available in Cipollino marble or other natural stones, enrich the collection alongside versions in various wood finishes. All configurations are paired with a structure made entirely of stainless steel, orbitally polished by hand or with a mirror-polished finish for an elegant and customizable result.

AlterEgo interprets the perfect synergy between the technical, professional soul of Abimis and the refined aesthetics of designer furniture, fitting naturally into both open-plan kitchens and living spaces. 

The hallmark of this sideboard are the bevelled flush doors with pivot hinges, framed by an AISI 304 stainless-steel structure with a recessed plinth, which recalls the formal language of the Ego line and reinforces its stylistic continuity. The circular design of the stainless steel handles is a distinctive signature of the project: functional elements that turn into decorative details. 

The new Cipollino marble doors further highlight the impeccable design of the sideboard, transforming it into a signature piece. The natural veining of the marble creates a three-dimensional effect that captures the surrounding space and ensures every AlterEgo is different from the next, lending it a sculptural character.  

AlterEgo confirms the Abimis production approach, defined by a balance between impeccable craftsmanship and industrial precision, offering a furnishing element that brings together functionality, aesthetics and construction quality. Designed to liaise with the Ego kitchen, it also stands out as a solo piece thanks to its strong personality and textured presence.

Once again, Volare changes shape without losing the elegance and versatility that have defined it over the years. Previewed during Milano Design Week 2026 at the Milan Flagship Store in the heart of Porta Nuova, Narcisi’s restyling rewrites one of the company’s most iconic models, guiding it toward an even more international dimension.

Volare was initially conceived as a living architectural experience — every volume and opening defines a visual and tactile rhythm, modulating perception and accompanying the gestures of those who inhabit the space. The kitchen thus becomes a place of connection and emotion, where solids and voids, light and matter, engage in dialogue to transform daily use into a scenographic and harmonious gesture.

Volare is designed as an integrated system ideal for open-plan environments and contemporary architecture. The material presence of oak conveys a sense of solidity — the starting point from which to ‘fly.’ Selected for the base units and island, natural oak expresses the authenticity of a material born from the earth, echoing the Abruzzo roots of Aran Cucine.

The wood grain meets the veining of Taurus gres used for the worktop, backsplashes, and island and base sides. The deep striations of the gres create a refined contrast with natural oak, establishing a dialogue between organic warmth and mineral strength.

Wall units with LPL Sabbia interiors introduce a refined chromatic note — an almost couture detail revealed in everyday life. It is not a color immediately disclosed, but one that is safeguarded: a visual surprise that enhances the project’s depth and strengthens its identity.

The handleless channel system, plinth and titanium rail profile precisely trace the horizontal lines, defining a rigorous architectural rhythm. The metallic accent introduces a discreet yet decisive technological component, underscoring the formal clarity of the composition and contributing to the sense of lightness from which the project takes its name.

Industry trend reports continue to identify Shaker-style doors as the most specified cabinet profile in U.S. kitchens. Valued for their balanced proportions and adaptability, Shaker cabinetry bridges traditional millwork and contemporary minimalism, allowing designers to shape a kitchen’s character through material, color and composition rather than ornament.

Newport builds on that enduring language, including balanced rails and stiles, clean framing and purposeful detailing, refined through a European lens. The five-part front reads structured yet restrained and allows material and layout to lead. 

Available in 28 satin lacquer colors, Newport supports tonal interiors, layered neutrals and saturated statements. The collection features a five-part satin lacquer Shaker-style front with a ¾-in. thickness. The water-based dual-cure lacquer system with UV drying produces a matte velvet surface engineered for durability and ease of maintenance. Manufactured in Herrieden, Germany, by Schüller Möbelwerk GmbH, each cabinet reflects Novalina’s emphasis on precision and long-term performance.

Beyond its exterior, Newport operates as a fully integrated system. Interior drawers, flex boxes and tall larder pull-out units create structured storage at every scale. Plate racks, upright shelving and apothecary cabinets allow designers to balance display and concealment. 

Lighting is integrated into the cabinetry architecture. Illuminated glass wall units, recessed LED spotlights, illuminated shelves and discreet plinth lighting create a layered ambience while highlighting the quality of the satin lacquer finish.

While manufactured in Germany, Newport aligns with American planning standards and appliance specifications, including true U.S. cabinet sizing in 24-, 30- and 36-in. widths. The collection reflects Novalina’s broader ambition of delivering kitchen cabinetry that honors design tradition while meeting the expectations of contemporary American living.

Opera breaks the rules of standard design. It features a play of solid shapes and sharp edges, where sculpted profiles add rhythm to the massive marble block.The result is a sculptural kitchen that naturally draws people around the island. Here, the raw strength of stone creates a new kind of balance in the home.

Designed by Massimo Castagna, Opera Wall (pictured) is a masterclass in sculptural minimalism and precise balance. Its bold steel profile brings an unconventional edge to modern living. The sophisticated look turns the wall into a living surface, where the rigor of metal meets a fresh design that moves beyond the traditional kitchen.
