TM Italia presents Aera, its new outdoor offering conceived as a technical system capable of withstanding demanding environmental conditions. Designed by Marco Taietta in collaboration with the firm's R&D team, the collection brings the language of high-end kitchens to the outdoors through specific construction solutions, a carefully curated selection of materials, and an open configuration designed to adapt to different contexts and uses.
The exterior as a starting point for contemporary design
Aera is developed from the inherent complexity of the external environment, where factors such as humidity, salinity or thermal variations influence the design. The external environment influences the design from the outset, defining constructive decisions, materials and durability of the whole.
This approach allows the system to adapt to different lifestyles and locations, from urban terraces to gardens or environments near the sea. Adaptability defines its character, reinforcing the idea of the kitchen as a coherent extension of the domestic space.
Construction system and material precision in the outdoor kitchen
One of Aera's most distinctive features is its double-front system on the drawers. The floating outer panel, separated by spacers, promotes heat dissipation and the drainage of water and dust, improving the overall performance under demanding conditions. The construction system becomes the central focus of the project, articulating technique and design.
The structure, made entirely of stainless steel and completely enclosed, reduces the infiltration of water and particles. The use of stainless steel guarantees resistance in demanding environments, with solutions such as AISI 316 for marine environments or lacquered finishes in AISI 304 with a microgranulated texture.
Flexible configuration and everyday use in the outdoor kitchen
The system is complemented by different finish options and combinations. Countertops in stainless steel or ceramic and fronts in steel, stoneware, lacquered or eco-resin allow the composition to be adapted to each project. The open configuration allows for multiple combinations., reinforcing Aera's flexible character.
On a functional level, the modules integrate washing, preparation and cooking areas with specific solutions for the outdoors. The integration of functions moves the use of the kitchen to the outdoors.incorporating equipped channels, sinks and cooking modules such as induction, grill or teppanyaki.
