Working the room: How REVEGO slide-in doors open up new spatial possibilities
REVEGO by Blum is the ideal response when faced with a design brief for an elegant yet multifunctional space. Unlike conventional bifold or sliding doors, its unique pocket system means both single door (REVEGO uno) and double door (REVEGO duo) disappear into a dedicated narrow cabinet – the ‘pocket.’
The system utilizes Blum’s TIP-ON motion technology rather than requiring an electric motor or some other powered system. Once installed, doors can be released by a light touch of the hand, to slide in and out as required.
This ease of use makes it simple to create multifunctional spaces that reflect the way people live and work. So a fully-equipped kitchen can be on display in an open-plan living area or concealed from view when homeowners require a more intimate space (or wish to hide unwashed dishes). A home office can occupy its niche at one end of the living space but be kept out of sight by deploying REVEGO. Or imagine a commercial showroom or boardroom integrating a functional kitchen that can be easily hidden from sight.
Thanks to TIP-ON motion technology and the smoothly gliding mechanism, there’s no need for handles or other external hardware to distract from the look. The effect is of a ‘movable wall’ that slides in and out of its own pocket on demand.
The outcome is unparalleled design flexibility. Open plan spaces can now be subdivided into zones or opened out to fit the users’ requirements. The applications in high-end residential, apartment and commercial spaces are obvious.
REVEGO also simplifies life for cabinetmakers and installers. They can set everything up in the workshop, carry the pockets to site and simply install the pocket as another cabinet, then clip the doors on. Any adjustment can be easily achieved from the pocket exterior.
REVEGO uno and duo doors have been set up within Blum’s Christchurch and Auckland showrooms, so designers and their clients can see and play with the product. To make it straightforward to specify, Blum has created an online Product Configurator to assist designers plan layouts and work out the place of REVEGO within their project’s design parameters. And there are three Blum Specification Consultants available to answer any questions and help create a detailed spec.
With REVEGO, open-plan spaces can now work harder – and look better – than ever before.
