Gaggenau’s new refrigeration series blurs the line between architecture and appliance
Gaggenau’s new refrigeration appliance is a sculptural element that effortlessly blends into the architecture of contemporary kitchens. With its furniture-like integration, handle-less doors and refined material palette that includes dark brushed stainless steel and aluminium-framed drawers, this cooling solution becomes a seamless extension of the living space.
Guided by a philosophy where form and function are inseparable, Gaggenau’s design team – led by Sven Baacke (Industrial Designer) and Mikkel Brandt Bugge (Head of Design) – has created a system where intuitive technology and aesthetic purity converge. Adaptive lighting reacts to ambient conditions and user interaction, dramatically illuminating the contents while maintaining a warm, understated glow.
This generation of cooling reimagines the user experience, from the dramatic interplay of lighting when a drawer opens, to the near-invisible technological prowess hidden within. Cameras, remote access via Home Connect, and customisable programmes cater to any lifestyle that values both control and elegance.
Besides storing food, Gaggenau preserves beauty, prolongs freshness and transforms everyday rituals into moments of quiet luxury. It is a bold reinterpretation of what refrigeration can be. gaggenau.com/ae
