Another of the options available in our Production Series hood is the stainless finish shown here. Matching most contemporary kitchen appliances, this style brings a bit of the old world elegance into the modern kitchen.
This is another of the hoods from our production line series being unveiled shortly. A few of the most common sizes and designs of our range hoods will be available in a standardized format with two finish options. The price point will end up being somewhere around what a middle-of-the-line stainless hood costs today. The quality will still be what we have been known for…
A simple look for the elegant kitchen. Trim is brushed with a medium nickel finish, while the face of the hood is allowed to shine…
A somewhat understated model, this Cézanne frame was accented with a fleur-de-lis tile and a custom rolled metal crown.
A preview of the Metallo Arts production line range hoods to be unveiled soon, this is a 30″h x 36″w x 24″d Cézanne style hood.
Another Jackson Pollock-inspired range hood. Here’s a slideshow/video of Chris painting this hood. Enjoy:
As a showpiece for a kitchen with gold accents throughout, from lace window treatments to gold-leafed cabinet faces, we built this extravagant hood on a Lautrec frame. The Elegance pattern repeats across the lower tier of the hood, with suspender straps to separate the patterns. The upper curve is a basic hammered pattern, which dies at the ceiling at a crown constructed with our Athena lip treatment. The entire hood was coated with a special high-gloss clearcoat for extra sheen and reflectiveness.
When we introduce a new pattern for production, we try to make sure that it works across the board. Our increasingly-popular Hanging Gardens pattern works equally well on a standard 36″ wide hood as it does on this 39″ tall, 72″ wide masterpiece. This hood, built to hang over a Lacanche Sully 1600, house two separate ventilation units, each one a customized Vent-a-Hood liner. The paint finish is designed to match a heavily patinaed zinc countertop which we were also called on to build.
The inspiration for this pattern, as with much of our design, comes from antiquity. This image, from a 1924 sheet metal catalog, shows the height of decoration reached during the Art Nouveau movement. A 60″ projection on cove molding today seems unbelievably excessive, but when the decorative arts were flourishing, it was common to see such extravagances in public buildings, and we pay tribute to the Victorian-era designers who planned such feats by resurrecting some of their motifs in our work.
This Lautrec frame was a venture into a design concept we hadn’t touched too much before - a contemporary smooth line look with an industrial edge to it. The trim was painted in a medium pewter color to match a set of stainless appliances and nickel trim, while for the finish we chose a color out of the ceiling tile, and darkened and clouded it for texture.
See below for a closeup of the finish and trim:
Adorned with late summer fruits and vegetables, this harvest-inspired hood is rustic yet elegant.
Antiqued in bronze and layered with the subtle brushwork of combined metallic tones, it exudes luxurious warmth.
The appliqué is rich with detail and nestles beautifully into both theme and design, creating a generous addition to the contemporary kitchen or country home.
