From antiquity to the present, kitchens have stood at the cultural centre of life in domestic living. The de-sign of the cookers by Smeg also revolves around this cultural notion. It was conceived as a cooking hub for people who savour and cherish the warm reception and welcoming atmosphere of the home. For this tar-get group, the kitchen is a place for cooking together and celebrating good food. The form and functionality of this cooker skilfully reflects this. Its design features high-quality materials such as stainless steel and ceramics as well as carefully honed surfaces that lend it an air of elegance. Much attention was dedicated to the design of the details, such as a highly practical backsplash with the Smeg 50’s style logo that helps to keep the kitchen cleaner and is itself easy to clean. The design idiom of classic appeal is underlined by elegantly looking control knobs with chrome finish that are outstandingly convenient to operate. This cooker is available in the traditional colours of cream and black as well as in stainless steel version and other colours. Thanks to a sophisticated concept and an elegant appearance, the cooker manages to tie in with a long tradition of domestic cooking while, at the same time, bringing it to new life.
