2016 Milan International Furniture Fair Preview

Valcucine will be presenting new solutions and approaches to the way we use the kitchen at the Salone del Mobile fair, at the same time revealing never-before seen finishes for a number of its ranges and most recent collections – including Genius Loci.

A new interactive kitchen concept will be launched and presented on Genius Loci. It will be accompanied by the V-Motion kit, designed for discerning customers who demand cutting-edge solutions and want their kitchen to be a “treasure chest of wellbeing” as well as a workhorse serving actual individual needs.

New smart opening and closing systems that respond to the merest touch will make using the kitchen a unique experience, serving as an unobtrusive helper and simplifying numerous daily tasks. In addition to this, the touchpad acts as a “wellbeing control centre”, that will help users manage everyday chores, gaining access to information and sharing their experiences.

Meticulous care has gone into the clean lines and functionality of the new Gourmet System, presented on Genius Loci, with details designed to meet the needs of any would-be chef, in order to take their expertise to the next level.

The new Gourmet System is a semi-professional solution, where the inclusion of clever features such as the steel top with concealed storage area and the built-in equipped back section, in addition to the innovative completely flush ceramic induction hob, ensures high performance and extreme ease of use in all prepping and cooking tasks. A solution designed for people who love to cook with highly professional tools, bringing together quality, innovation and elegance.

The new finish options, not only offer enhanced looks but also increased handcrafted quality and sensory feel of the materials, such as the new tactile wood finishes. The options in glass – which have always been Valcucine's strongest “domain” – will see the addition of the new glass finishes, which add a sense of depth to the design while also providing a delightful tactile sensation.

The underlying message throughout is clear: Innovation for Life. The company focuses on wellbeing, innovation and timeless design built to last. Each kitchen is built around people and their needs, thus creating products that help make everyday life that bit more enjoyable. Valcucine designs kitchens that will become a customer's treasured companion for years to come – timeless creations that are immune to the fickleness of trends – solutions that improve the use and usability of spaces to deliver a unique experience for the user and provide a feeling of pure wellbeing on a daily basis.
