A Way of Living with Boffi

The XPL kitchen by Piero Lissoni for Boffi stems from the idea of reducing a kitchen to its essence: a pure, rigorous volume almost floating in space. The island, a monolithic architectural statement of its own.

Unveiled for the first time in Milan, XPL represents the evolution of the iconic Xila kitchen system, which was originally designed in 1972 by Luigi Massoni and is based on a clear structural principle: reduction of form, control of proportions, and articulation of construction detail as a defining element.

Forming part of a wider collection of new releases, XPL speaks to the overarching philosophy of the Boffi, De Padova, ADL brand — a coherent vision of contemporary living rooted in a culture of excellence.

Within this framework, Boffi interprets the most functional spaces of the home with kitchens, bathrooms, and wardrobe systems conceived as true domestic architecture, where technology, material research, and precise construction consistently establish new stands of quality.

Alongside it, De Padova completes this narrative with a sophisticated collection of sofas, tables, chairs, lighting systems, and outdoor pieces where design, comfort, and culture coexist. ADL develops door systems and architectural elements that interpret the partition between spaces as a design opportunity.

Together, the three brands form a complete interior concept, transforming design into a spatial and sensory experience to create, as they say, a truly authentic ‘Way
of Living’.

In New Zealand, this sophisticated and internationalist offering is available exclusively from Elemento | Boffi Studio — spanning complete architectural interiors from kitchens and bathrooms to partitions and furniture; iconic, enduring designs that consistently capture the world’s attention.
