Gaggenau, the luxury brand for professional-grade home appliances, unveiled the ‘Gaggenau Home’ at EuroCucina, 2018. The brand achieved an extraordinary turnout, determined by the perfect execution of the booth design – inspired by grand architectural statements.
A core element of the booth concept centred on placing a spotlight on the new Vario cooling 400 series; a portfolio of cooling products inspired by grand architectural statements. The result was a full-scale representation of an aspirational domestic space, that presented an immersive stage to showcase the appliances’ ability to go beyond the kitchen. The distinctly designed ‘Gaggenau Home’ created a powerful narrative – expressing how the new functional, imposing range are grand appliances, that mirror the architectural statement of the home.
The ‘Gaggenau Home’ focused on an open-plan kitchen and living space, which hosted a suite of Gaggenau appliances such as the new Vario cooling series, baking, coffee and cooking appliances. The home also included a garage, foyer, living area and outdoor space, all seamlessly connected with the use of authentic, pure materials and a discerningly designed interior structure.
Whilst creating a booth concept of this magnitude, long-standing partners, architectural firm einszu33 led by Hendrik Müller and Georg Thiersch, deconstructed the sentiment of grand architectural statements. Visitors to the booth experienced an aspirational insight into Gaggenau’s vision, perfectly articulated through a sequence of architectural gestures. The home reflected with precision, the harmony between the rituals of domestic culinary culture, and the functional and aesthetic aspects of sophisticated, centralised living.
Sven Schnee, Head of Global Brand Gaggenau, commented: “We utilised this opportunity to showcase our newest range of appliances, the award winning Vario cooling 400 series, and its ability to integrate with our ideal of the future contemporary home. Our views have been based on the scale and design of this new range, and their ability to go far beyond the kitchen. We feel this is something we have achieved with great success, through the creation and exhibition of the ‘Gaggenau Home’, an architectural statement that communicated our vision of a living space that holds no bounds.
“EuroCucina 2018 has marked an event in our history we, as a brand, are extremely proud of. Never before have we created something of this scale that imparted with such clarity, the true values of Gaggenau. This year’s appearance at EuroCucina was and still is, a testament to our individuality and design-centric approach within the luxury kitchen appliance market, further cementing our dedication to revolutionising the future of the domestic kitchen.”
To complement the ‘Gaggenau Home’, Gaggenau collaborated with a series of likeminded, highly respected brands. Curated pieces featured as part of the home included: an Aston Martin DB11; interior wood fittings from Schotten & Hansen; modern furniture from Walter Knoll; lighting installations from Occhio; a bespoke piece of art from Eduard Micus; one decorative shelf from Porro; porecelain sculptures from Porzellan Manufaktur Nymphenburg and a selection of fine wines from Sotheby’s Wine.

A highlight of the dinner came as the guests bidding for a large white truffle sponsored by Gaggenau to support UNICEF.
The event reflects the most genuine passion of Gaggenau to promote refined culinary arts and its persistent pursuit of the “bella vita”.
Gaggenau, the German luxury kitchen appliance specialist, celebrated the opening of the House of Gaggenau, the first flagship showroom in Hong Kong, with tremendous support from the city’s and international elites on October 25th 2012.
Gaggenau takes pride in its persistent pursuit of culinary art and European art of living. Opening a 1,500 sq. ft. culinary studio, along with a private dining room and showcase kitchen styled after a private clubhouse, Gaggenau will further enforce its culinary passion with many inspiring and exciting collaborations with celebrity and Michelin starred chefs.
Upon entering the showroom, guests are impressed by a ‘Heritage Wall’ made from the wood of a century-old Black Forest lodge. It is completed with a vintage cuckoo clock and Gaggenau’s most iconic masterpiece, oven EB388, a permanent exhibit in the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The wall represents a history of 330 years of technical excellence of Gaggenau and can be found in all Gaggenau flagship showrooms worldwide.
Gaggenau has gained magnificent support from many culinary masters worldwide for its contribution in bringing professional kitchens to domestic users. At the opening of the House of Gaggenau, you could see chef Ryan Clift from Singapore, Gaggenau International Culinary Ambassador, who is famed for helming The Tippling Club, one of the best 20 restaurants in Asia, chef Federico Duarte from Shanghai, executive chef of Institut Paul Bocuse, founded by ‘Chef of the Century’ Paul Bocuse and many celebrity chefs from the Hong Kong Chefs Association.
