The Cookery

The Cookery x Boring

The most complete compact kitchen island

The Cookery is the kitchen that fits: in your home, but also with your taste and your needs. That’s in details like the slightly higher countertop, but also in the standard luxury options and the space to cook together.

And all that packed into a small and compact island, designed to hold at least as much storage as a standard kitchen and never get in each other’s way.

Most people who buy a (smaller) newly built house experience the choice of kitchen as annoying: The standard is not good enough, adaptations are very expensive and when you drop the standard you get almost nothing in return. For the developer and contractor, it’s actually not much better. They are confronted with many different choices and adjustments which in turn lead to failure costs.

With ‘The Cookery we solve this problem for everyone, the buyer gets a high-end designer kitchen with all the trimmings and has limited choice to adapt it to their taste. The contractor has the same kitchen with the same connections in every home or delivers the shell. And the developer, due to the high market value of The Cookery, can market the home higher while benefiting from low purchasing.

Dataflex

Dataflex x Boring

In 2021, Dataflex and Boring set up their colab. Dataflex specializes in office solutions and decided to make a Boring arm monitor.

Adjust the height and depth of this tediously effective monitor arm to optimise your ergonomic comfort throughout a long and uneventful day’s work. Then gently glide it up against the wall and out of view. The swivel limiter will avoid any dramatic bumps into walls or office furniture. Even the cables are hidden away in the arm extension, making your monitor arm all the more inconspicuous.

With its immaculate sustainability credentials, precision engineering and flawless design nothing has been left to chance. Because that might just be interesting.

Forbo

Forbo x Boring

Autumn 2020, Boring creative director Remi visits the Forbo Linoleum factory where at that particular moment Marmoleum Solid is produced in a modest soft grey colour to match the Boring Collection.

Next to our collection of Boring furniture, we now also offer Boring Marmoleum flooring.

Lensvelt

Lensvelt x Boring

The Award winning Boring Collection is a collaboration between Beyond Space and Lensvelt. Together, they won the Milano Design award for best concept in 2016. The collection derived from the dissatisfaction of the modern day look and feel of project furniture. The Boring Collection does not pretend to be something that it is not, as what you see is what you get. Creating a more aesthetically pleasing collection would become unaffordable or lead to unnecessary compromises, that is why affordability is an essential aspect. Intrinsically the collection is not about the furniture or even attracting any attention whatsoever. All this so that the focus is shifted towards the things that actually matter: the surroundings, interior and optimal productivity. The collection is completed in a modest, simple and plain soft grey adhering to the pure essence of functionality. The muted gray tone gives the designs the unique ability to completely blend in with its surroundings. Presented to you; a curated series of inconspicuous furniture, where its discreet appearance allows it to be present in the modern office, no distractions.

Lensvelt is the first partner Boring set up a collaboration with back in 2016.
