the Architect and the Cook.
A good kitchen needs good architecture. A good cook's best
friend is a good architect. A well designed kitchen makes for a happy
cook as it enables him to exercise his talent. c’est la première
condition du
bonheur du Chef. So
that the architect (or the interior decorator) may more fully
appreciate our demands, born of our passion, La Cornue has developed
the La Cornue Château Kitchen service. We are
very familiar with the mysteries of cooking, the actions, the perfumes,
the flavours, and also the most subtle of constraints. The La Cornue Château Kitchen service
is the repository for our knowledge, and it is made available to you,
or to your architect, so that we may design your kitchen together:
unique, traditional, homely,changeable, spectacular, sensual… but always joyous, practical and food-loving. La Cornue Château Kitchen
projects include cooking, ventilation, chilling, water supply, work
surfaces, storage, associated equipment and furniture, and may even
cover the ceiling, walls and lighting if you wish.
It is in the same spirit that we developed a range of « Château Kitchen »
furniture to complement our kitchen ranges. You will recognize our
concern for excellence in each and every one of these items of
furniture.
 The spice Cabinet Drawing
inspiration from the beautiful furniture that we used to find in
delicatessens, this cabinet, with its four stacked drawers in solid walnut
and its brass handles retains all of its
decorative splendour while offering all the advantages associated with
a contemporary piece of furniture. The compartmentalized drawers are
lined with stainless steel and slide on high-quality rails and runners.
You may store commonly used coarse salt, condiments, spices and herbs
here within easy reach.
 The wild game Table A faithful replica of the robust blocks of olden days, the La Cornue wild game table is made of solid oak. Positioned on four sturdy legs equipped with solid wheels, the La Cornue
wild game table may be easily moved and used anywhere in the kitchen or
stored where convenient. The chopping surface in laminated wood makes
it possible to cut very large pieces. A large drawer accommodates the
chopping board (supplied), the steel, knives and other accessories.
 The vegetable Cabinet Combining
modernity and tradition, stainless steel and wickerwork, the basket
cabinet fits perfectly under the work surface. Four large rattan
baskets allow quantities of fruit and vegetables (onions, garlic,
potatoes, apples, pears, melons, etc.) to be kept out in the air and
within easy reach, in the best conditions for conservation.
 The sink unit La Cornue offers a sink unit that allows you to preserve aesthetic unity within your La Cornue Château Kitchen. The
unit may be crafted in one of our sixteen coloured enamels, with a
brass, chrome or nickel finish, in order to go with your range. It is
equipped with two asymmetric stainless steel basins and traditional
taps especially manufactured for La Cornue. The lower part of the
sink unit comprises a two door cupboard with stainless steel shelves.
We may also customize this piece of furniture upon request.
 Extractor hoods La Cornue
produces extractor hoods with an integrated motor for small kitchen
ranges and extractor hoods with a relocated motor (turret on the roof
or in an attic) if layout makes
it possible. All kinds of extractor hood shapes are possible: trapezium
hood, corner hood, central hood…Customized La Cornue hoods are available in numerous shades to match the colour of kitchen ranges.
 Shelves and Closets No
kitchen would be complete if it did not have a few strategically
placed, practical shelves and closets for accessories. Inspiration for
our La Cornue shelves came directly from those found in the kitchens of 17th century castles.
We chose for them to be very robust, with black cast iron brackets, and
built of blond oak or solid walnut. These shelves may be made to
measure upon request.
 The machine-concealer This
piece of furniture was developed in order to enable you to integrate a
standard-sized domestic appliance (60 or 45 cm wide), without upsetting
the harmony of your La Cornue kitchen. Behind a La Cornue door, you may
discretely conceal a washing machine, a dishwasher or a refrigerator. Top of page

It is an extremely comprehensive, efficient and silent top-of-the-range article, designed
exclusively for La Cornue in such a way as to marry perfectly with our culinary environment.
