CUCINAnD’O, the kitchen ‘whose kitchen’ enters the ARAN Cucine catalogue
CUCINAnD’O, born from the fusion of the word “cucina” (kitchen) with Davide Oldani’s restaurant in Cornaredo, was conceived by the Chef himself in collaboration with Attila Veress and now officially enters the ARAN Cucine catalog.
Among the novelties presented at EuroCucina / FTK – Technology For the Kitchen, from April 16th to 21st at the Rho Fiera Milano, CUCINAnD’O fits into a broader reflection oriented towards sustainability. CUCINAnD’O A sustainable and responsible culture plays an even more significant role when it comes to the kitchen “of those who cook.” In addition to being the place dedicated to food preparation, it becomes an environment in which to promote conscious use of resources and togetherness.
Starting from simple things, CUCINAnD’O in its new configuration emphasizes the values of conviviality: teamwork, even in the kitchen, and welcoming guests. Although the shape shifts from round to rectangular, the essence remains the same: the elm wood snack, one of Chef Davide Oldani‘s favorite essences, features a space below the work surface, clearly inspired by the tables of his restaurant D’O, adapted in a domestic version to accommodate personal items. The bottom part of the snack is specially designed to encourage involvement in interpersonal relationships.
This space therefore serves as a dedicated area to place electronic devices, allowing people to digitally disconnect and fully focus on conversations and shared culinary experiences. An approach that reflects the value of conviviality and human connection, emphasizing the importance of creating meaningful bonds and sharing authentic moments around the table. The sharing and conviviality of CUCINAnD’O tell a new perspective: that of social sustainability, focused on recovering human relationships to give people spaces and moments of connection and value.

Innovation and cutting-edge design are reflected both in the aesthetic aspect and in the volumes: the operational area expresses the modernity of an induction system embedded in a stainless-steel worktop, complemented by practical black aluminum shelves to support pots and utensils.Representing the epitome of functionality is the system of retractable doors that runs along the entire kitchen wall: by utilizing compartments and organizing retractable shelves dedicated to the oven compartment, it makes its function easier, ensuring safety and practicality during kitchen activities.
The continuous search for comfort, both functional and emotional, returns in the dialogue between the matte grey lacquered open module and the black metal bookcase. Equipped with shelves, in their simplicity, they combine maximum elegance with practicality, allowing the best use of the available convivial space. CUCINAnD’O, through the adoption of durable materials and the inclusion of high-energy efficiency appliances, is inspired by the principles of a sustainable kitchen that involves and sensitizes those who inhabit and use it. In line with ARAN Cucine‘s green philosophy, even the finishes: the paints used for wood are made with sustainable processes and are antibacterial, while the solvents used are water-based. In a context and at a time where environmental awareness plays an increasingly crucial role, CUCINAnD’O presents itself as the innovative kitchen that combines culinary art with sustainability.
Its inclusion in the ARAN Cucine catalog represents a tangible response to the ever-growing needs of every market segment: every detail of the new developments of CUCINAnD’O has been carefully crafted to maximize functionality and reduce environmental impact, confirming ARAN Cucine‘s commitment to a future where “better” corresponds to “sustainable.”
CUCINAnD’O, an icon of positive change in the way we conceive and use domestic spaces, is more than just a catalogue insertion; it is placed in a manifesto, encouraging a more responsible lifestyle and environmentally conscious, valuing the people who inhabit it.
