Very first handle less kitchen model
NO HANDLES!

Frontrunner in the kitchen: it was the first to showcase wall and base units without handles and with a simple pressure opening. A revolution that has made Xila unique and timeless.
The module as standard
FLEXIBLE AND ADAPTABLE TO ANY ENVIRONMENT

Xila inherits the innovation introduced by the previous E15 of 1965. Emulating the building standards based on 15 cm and multiples, it sets fixed modularity for the kitchen units.
Meet the designer
Luigi Massoni

He began his activities as architect, designer, publicist and publisher in the fifties in Milan. A top figure in the sector, he works with famous names in Italian architecture. He worked for Boffi in the sixties as designer and art director, creating some of the first modular systems for home and kitchen. He did similar work with many Italian industries, operating in the sectors of furnishings, plastic materials, ceramics, glass and crystal, metals, leather goods, household goods and gift items.

His works, published in the main Italian and foreign magazines, have won numerous prizes and wide recognition. He lives in Recanati and since 2001 has collaborated with the studio 967 Architetti Associati, handling projects for Poltrona Frau, Fratelli Guzzini and Upper. For Boffi he created: the Dogu kitchen and bathroom, the Xila kitchen and bathroom, the Punto bathroom, the E15 kitchen, the AL15 kitchen and the A1 cupboard.

The world's first handleless kitchen, featuring integrated aluminium profiles that create clean architectural lines and an uncompromising minimalist aesthetic.

Equipped with advanced solutions such as the Inside System Top, integrated accessory channels, LED lighting and concealed extraction systems, Xila seamlessly blends technology with timeless design.
