XPL

Design: Piero Lissoni

XPL stems from the idea of reducing the project to its essence: a pure, rigorous volume, almost floating in space. The island becomes a small domestic architecture, the design of a continuous surface in which details become the essence of the project. And, for once, I also allowed myself to soften the corners: a small gesture of kindness.

Designed by Piero Lissoni, XPL represents the evolution of the Xila kitchen system, originally created in 1972 by Luigi Massoni, and is based on a clear structural principle: reduction of form, control of proportions, and enhancement of construction detail as a distinctive element.

Its defining feature is the 90 mm chamfered side panel with a 32 mm radius outer edge: a gentle curve that shapes the project’s signature detail. XPL is available in a floor-panel version, which reinforces its monolithic character, and in a suspended version at plinth height, which accentuates its volumetric lightness.

A further configuration is represented by suspended units integrating a rear snack counter structurally connected to the system. It is an expression of advanced construction research in terms of stability and control of deformation across a span measuring 3 metres and 60 centimetres. The top, slightly overhanging in relation to the side panels, is finished with a 34 mm radius on all four corners and is available in 4 mm-thick solid stainless steel, 12 mm-thick MDi, and 20 mm-thick marble.

The polyester lacquering is carried out by a process of applying paints on MDF panels, with several coats. The surfaces are sanded with different coarse-grained and fine-grained sandpapers. Then they are polished using brushes impregnated with abrasive wax. The result obtained is a very glossy surface (close to the mirror effect) that reaches 95 gloss. Polyester is a very resistant material, practically waterproof; its surface does not absorb, but is sensitive to scratches. The scratched surface can be re-smoothed and re- polished or even repaired adding material and then by sanding and smoothing it again. Three layers of paint coat each surface, it means 900 g/m2 (ca. 1 mm thick); nine layers of paint coat each edge (ca. 3 mm thick). It is sensitive to light if directly exposed for very long periods. It can slightly change the tone, becoming lighter especially on light tones (family of whites). In case of element additions in a second moment, these tone changes cannot be perfectly replicated and may not match exactly the original shade. This issue cannot be considered cause for a complaint.

Metal-effect lacquer. Metals is a special finishing which reproduces the typical effect of brushed metallic surfaces, rendered through a very precise and technical sequence of production cycles. The characteristic metallic effect of the surface is given by the alternation of manual and mechanical processes, by the quality of the metal particles-enriched solvent-based paints and by the complex drying procedure. The various shades of colour (halos caused by the spread of the paint chromium particles) and the succession of multi-directional brushing of the surface make each piece a unique and exclusive one.
