FALA x DIMANCHE – Nosy Hoods
Their design for Dimanche explores the role of kitchen hoods in the construction of domestic interiors. If kitchens are small buildings, hoods are canopies, cornices or balconies. They are finishing elements of the domestic composition. They assume certain shapes, project brisk colors, and breathe heavily when turned on. They are also covers, thin jackets to wear proudly.
