Cesar and Garcia Cumini explore new material frontiers with N_Elle, combining glass, refined colors, and ever-expanding customization possibilities
Always attentive to aesthetic and functional research, Cesar pursues a design path that places material and its infinite variations at the center. In collaboration with the Garcia Cumini studio, the company interprets the kitchen not as a mere technical space, but as an expressive language capable of conveying identity and desires. From this vision arises a continuous dialogue between innovation and memory, between color experimentation and material refinement.
Cesar Nuance: glass as a narrative
The new chapter of this research takes shape with Nuance, a finish inspired by the artistic glass of the past century, reinterpreting its spirit in a contemporary key. Characterized by a chromatic dynamism reminiscent of the fluid nature of acid-etched glass, Nuance combines thickness and evanescence, creating ever-changing visual effects. The surface stands out for its soft and silky touch, enhancing the sensory relationship between user and material.

From the Tangram island to N_Elle
Initially presented on the Tangram island countertop, Nuance now finds a new expression in vertical application as well, on the N_Elle cabinet fronts. This shift marks a significant evolution: the finish is no longer limited to a horizontal role but becomes an enveloping element, capable of transforming the kitchen island into a chromatic monolith with a strong identity. The shades—available in Caramel, Blue, Green, and Red—create light effects that change with the viewer’s perspective, giving uniqueness to every interpretation.
Materials, contrasts, possibilities
Nuance further enriches the already wide range of N_Elle finishes: from natural wood veneers to unicolor laminates, from glossy lacquers to ceramics, and even terrazzo and natural stones. The project thus becomes a laboratory of customization, where the contrast between luminous lightness and precious materiality becomes a distinctive hallmark.
Cesar Nuance: a design language for professionals
For architects and interior designers, Nuance represents much more than a finish: it is an abstract visual code that invites interpreting the kitchen as domestic architecture, as a living installation that interacts with the space. The ability to work glass in an innovative way opens up unprecedented design scenarios, where the material itself becomes a narrative vehicle.
