ELEMENTI: OPEN STUDIO

Join us during NYC Design Week for an open studio showcasing Abimis and Vaselli. Experience precision-crafted stainless steel kitchens alongside sculptural stone furnishings, where performance meets material artistry. Discover new collections, connect with the team, and explore how Italian craftsmanship translates into refined, contemporary living environments.

Elementi is a design-led platform dedicated to sourcing and presenting exceptional architectural materials and kitchen systems for high-end residential projects. With a focus on craftsmanship, material integrity, and collaboration, Elementi works closely with leading Italian manufacturers to bring bespoke, highly technical products to the North American design community. At the core of Elementi’s offering are two distinct yet complementary partners: Abimis and Vaselli.

Abimis specializes in custom stainless steel kitchens, originally developed for professional applications and refined for the home. Each kitchen is handmade by highly skilled Italian metal artisans and engineered for durability, hygiene, and precision. With seamless construction, patented detailing, and a range of finishes from orbital to mirror-polished or lacquered, Abimis kitchens combine performance with a refined, architectural presence, suitable for both interior and exterior environments.

Vaselli, by contrast, explores the expressive potential of natural stone. Working primarily in solid blocks of marble and travertine, Vaselli produces monolithic kitchens, vanities, and furniture that emphasize mass, texture, and timeless materiality. Their collections, including collaborations with international designers, push stone beyond traditional applications, creating sculptural pieces that function as both furniture and architecture.

Together, these two brands reflect Elementi’s broader approach: pairing technical innovation with material depth, and offering fully customizable solutions that respond to the needs of architects and designers. Elementi serves not just as a distributor, but as a partner in the design process, providing guidance, samples, and technical expertise from concept through installation. Presented during NYC Design Week, the open studio offers an opportunity to experience these systems firsthand, highlighting the intersection of Italian craftsmanship, advanced fabrication, and contemporary design.
