Gaggenau’s Essential Induction Cooktops Are Invisible And Integrate Seamlessly Into The Kitchen Platforms Believing In Quite Luxury

Posted on by

In the dynamic realm of kitchen design, Gaggenau’s latest creation, the Essential Induction, masterfully merges cutting-edge technology with architectural elegance, redefining the very essence of kitchen aesthetics. This platform-breaking cooktop effortlessly fades into the background, offering a perfect union of functionality and minimalist design.

Designer: Gaggenau

Gaggenau’s longstanding commitment to innovation and visually pleasing aesthetics has consistently elevated its status in the world of kitchen appliances. The Essential Induction, part of the 400 series cooktops, presents a range of sizes from 38 cm to one meter, tailored for spacious kitchens, granting architects the freedom to express their creative vision. The solid stainless steel illuminated control knobs can be vertically mounted, and the flexible Vario options empower users to craft a bespoke cooktop that aligns with individual preferences.

At the core of the Essential Induction’s design philosophy lies the concept of quiet luxury. When not in use, the cooking zone seamlessly transforms into a multifunctional stone surface, maintaining a sleek and minimalist appearance. The absence of visible cooking zones or frames enables seamless integration into any living space, erasing the traditional boundaries between living areas and food preparation.

This induction marks a departure from conventional kitchen layouts, encouraging a more fluid and interactive cooking experience. Gaggenau’s design team observed a shift in user behavior, with individuals instinctively arranging ingredients and utensils around the pot, fostering a natural and enjoyable cooking process.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the induction almost vanishes into a Dekton worktop when switched off, leaving only the front-mounted knobs in stainless steel or black as evidence of its presence. When in use, The knobs glow and a discreet LED dot guides users on where to place their pan for optimal heating, enhancing both safety and efficiency.

The seamless integration of Essential Induction into the Dekton worktop is made possible by the remarkable properties of Dekton, a durable material from Cosentino. Composed of ultra-compact mineral particles, Dekton offers resistance to heat, stains, and scratches, making it an ideal choice for architects designing kitchen countertops.

Beneath the Dekton surface, Gaggenau employs high-performance induction modules in two sizes, accommodating pots and pans up to 21 cm or 28 cm. The modules are activated through magnetic surface protectors, ensuring a secure grip on cookware while safeguarding the worktop from scratches and dampening sounds. The control knobs provide users with Gaggenau’s signature precision and speed, offering 12 power levels, a keep-warm function, and a boost for added convenience.

In the realm of kitchen appliances, Gaggenau’s Essential Induction stands as a testament to the philosophy that less is more. By seamlessly integrating into the living space, this cooktop not only enhances the aesthetics of the kitchen but also transforms the cooking experience into a joyous and liberating activity. Gaggenau’s Essential Induction is not just a kitchen appliance; it is a celebration of minimalism, innovation, and the pursuit of culinary perfection.

The world’s first no-chimney kitchen exhaust uses a drawer for ventilation

Posted on by

Okay, I am just going to say it, I have never met a kitchen exhaust or vent that has helped prevent the ringing of the smoke alarm when I cook. Some that are good certainly delay it, but if you have a small New York City apartment then your house is going to smell like your dish for at least a day. I am glad someone out there thought we needed a more innovative solution and designed the world’s first downdraft with a central cooking plate and underhung drawer! A top-notch setting that controls ventilation, making cleaning easier, and elevates the aesthetics of your kitchen.

Gutmann is a global leader in manufacturing high-quality exhaust hoods for households and is trusted by the best of specialized kitchen dealers. The design team combined their superior engineering with their own creative vision to give the users a cleaner experience. To come up with the solution, the team had to understand that performance, cleaning, and changing the filters are the core pillars of creating an efficient product. “With downdraft becoming the new norm, power was questionable. We said it had to step above the current noise. Emphasizing airflow, and creating clarity in the UI were our central points,” said the design team about their goal to create a downdraft hood that had the same (if not better) impact as the ceiling hood.

Each kitchen is different, there is a large variation in depths and heights of cabinets and drawers; so the design of this cooktop was kept lightweight without compromising on the advanced technology and materials. It was important to highlight the drawer during use and assembling all components in a central zone for intuitive user experience – optimizing storage and making cooking a stress-free process. Cooktops are used every day and they have to be durable to endure the constant cleaning and cooking. It can wear down even the most enthusiastic chef and homeowner to maintain appliances. To make this easier all the components were made with precise dimensions so they would fit directly into the dishwasher. This cooktop set up should go straight on top of your kitchen wishlist!

Not Your Mama’s Recipe Book

quiett_cooktop_and_cookbook_layout

My mom gave me a handful of those ancient recipe books that have been handed down in my family for decades. It was a nice gesture and all, but I’ll almost certainly never get around to making any of our heirloom recipes because… well… because who has time for that?? If you’re like me, you probably aren’t going to get around to cooking a new dish unless there’s an easy online instructional or YouTube video!

Imagined with this in mind, the Quiett cooktop aims to make our modern cooking lessons even more convenient by putting them right on the surface where the magic happens. A digital screen syncs with your smartphone to play videos, map recipes, and provide step-by-step instructions right on the cooktop itself. This way, you can concentrate on what you’re doing and keep your hands free. Better yet, you can interact with other users and share your favorite recipes all from the convenience of the cooktop!

Kitchen on the go!

sharepool_01

In the modern world, we share everything from car rides to apartments, so why not share your kitchen too?! Designed around this idea, Sharepool is a concept that explores what we might expect from the kitchen of future.

The system allows users to rent a single all-in-one kitchen unit instead of purchasing individual appliances. To make this possible, Sharepool has been scaled down to one compact system that includes a cooktop, microwave and fridge enclosed in a protective structure on wheels. It’s incredibly mobile, not only between each user’s dwelling, but within the dwelling itself. Particularly useful in microliving spaces, it can be placed in almost any room whether it’s the office or dining area to save valuable space!

Designers: Aslı Erkun, Marisa Rotolo & Amund Østbye Røed

Fool-Proof Stovetop

Posted on by

It seems like every time I try to light the stove I always choose the wrong knob! Clearly, I’m not the only one because Caner Aras’ Eclipse Gas Cooktop makes it easy to navigate from knob to burner. The knobs themselves safely recess into the top when not in use, ensuring that one isn’t accidentally activated while working around the stove.

Single-Person Cooking

S.I.A.M. fits perfectly into the kitchen of a singleton. It’s basically a built-in hood and induction cooker. Ideal for quick dishes that require stir-frying, the cooker folds up when not in use. The action of opening and closing the cooker, automatically switches it on or off. I kinda like its form and I think it will fit well in a compact kitchen.

Designers: Hye-Rim Lee and Tae-Ryung Byun
