Urban Kitchen benefits Each Urban Kitchen design is based on the importance of an efficient workflow in the kitchen. Through DYNAMIC SPACE, kitchens of all sizes are optimised for efficiency. DYNAMIC SPACE zones eliminate unnecessary movements in the kitchen. Blum fittings ensure that your Urban Kitchen lasts a lifetime, guaranteed. Homeowners will be able to maximise the space they have without compromising on the general aesthetics of their home designs. Everything is in place hence there is no longer the need to search for utensils or ingredients. And Urban Kitchen is possible regardless of the size of the home. 5
Urban Kitchen and DYNAMIC SPACE Each Urban Kitchen is based on Blum s DYNAMIC SPACE practical kitchen concept. What makes kitchens practical? Kitchens come in for heavy duty use so you soon find out what makes them practical. Our Requirement Research has shown that practical kitchens have three essential features: Simple workflows, optimal space usage and top quality motion. In short, workflow, space and motion. DYNAMIC SPACE delivers ideas for practical kitchens. It has well-thought-out products for top functionality in every kitchen; solutions such as the SPACE TOWER larder unit or the SPACE CORNER cabinet which are tailored to kitchen users needs; and know-how that can come in very handy in the early planning phase. Five zones for optimal workflow Consumables Food is kept in the consumables zone. When planning this zone it s important to ensure that everything s within easy reach. Non-consumables The non-consumables zone is designed for cutlery, crockery and glasses. That s why it s a good idea to have the dishwasher close by. Cleaning This zone features the dishwasher and sink. Cleaning utensils and agents should be kept here so that everything s close at hand. Preparation All the utensils needed for preparing food are kept in this zone between cooking and cleaning. Pullouts ensure that they are within easy reach and can be quickly placed on worktops. Cooking There should be enough space for pots and pans and cooking implements right next to the hob. 6

HINGES Blum has taken the simple hinge to a whole new level of refinement and functionality. Doors can be opened to different angles and distances depending on the type of hinge employed. In combination with BLUMOTION, Blum hinge systems close doors smoothly and without fuss. TANDEM TANDEM is a tried and tested runner system for wooden drawers and pull-outs. It offers refined movement for both single and full extensions in any living area.

Motion technology Blum has such a broad range of furniture hardware that customers can be sure of finding the best solution for their individual needs, sure in the knowledge that every product is distinguished by its smooth and precise motion. Our patented BLUMOTION mechanism is integrated into all our drawers, doors and lift systems.

SERVO-DRIVE, our electrical motion support system, opens pull-outs and lift systems with the lightest touch on the front. A special feature of SERVO-DRIVE for the AVENTOS series is an easily accessible ergonomic switch for automatic closing. With its integrated BLUMOTION mechanism, SERVO-DRIVE is synonymous with precision motion. TIP-ON inside TIP-ON is a mechanical opening support system for beautifully functional opening. A single press on the front is enough to open handle-less drawers, doors and lift systems with a feather-light gliding action. 28
