Filipinos have a penchant for hosting friends and families in their homes. Because of this, it comes as no surprise that the kitchen plays a crucial part in many Filipino homes. And while most families prefer to focus on function over form, those who have the means and space can transform their kitchen into the centerpiece of their abode.
This is what Italian luxury kitchen brand Pedini hopes to create with its most curved kitchen ever introduced to the local market. One of the pieces of Pedini’s Arkè collection, the new kitchen is one of the highlights of Moda Interni’s Quezon City showroom. Featuring a sculptural C-shaped island and body, curved lacquered cabinetry, and slatted wood detailing, the design is a masterclass in both engineering and aesthetics.
“Curved kitchens represent a refined evolution in kitchen design, one that balances visual harmony with daily performance,” said Goldwin Sison, CEO of Moda Interni. “With Pedini’s curved kitchens, we’re not just offering a luxury product. We’re introducing a new standard for how the modern Filipino kitchen can feel and function,” he added.
As the Philippine luxury market becomes increasingly design-savvy, curved kitchens are fast becoming the next frontier. Yet only a select few brands globally can offer this level of craftsmanship. Pedini, a leader in modular and luxury kitchens since 1957, was one of the first to pioneer the curved kitchen concept.
“This collection is the result of decades of innovation and Italian design heritage,” said Francesco Giuffrida. “At Pedini, it’s about shaping spaces that reflect the way people live today, with elegance, efficiency, and emotion.”
Giuffrida said that a curved kitchen design encourages natural movement, interaction, and everyday multitasking. Every curve can be strategized to your needs. Not just for cooking, but for creating a space that brings people together and enhances everyday living.
The modular design also allows a wide range of customization.
While the overall shape stays consistent, key elements like stoves, sinks, and accessories can be arranged to suit each customer’s flow and style. One could have under counter chillers while another could have a dishwasher, depending on their needs. Beyond function, curved kitchens offer striking aesthetics, transforming the kitchen into a true hub for entertaining and connection.
“Over the past few months, we’ve heard from fellow architects and designers that more clients are asking about curved kitchens. It’s exciting to see this interest growing. It signals the beginning of a new design movement here in the Philippines,” said Sison. “And at Moda Interni, we’re proud to lead this conversation with Pedini, one of the world’s best when it comes to curved kitchen design and now the leading brand for it in the country.”
