In the last eighteen months the kitchen has played a key role never experienced before in family life. Most people have spent an unprecedented amount of time at home for work, study and leisure, giving rise to new needs and habits that are impacting inevitably on the kitchen environment. People want more space for the preservation of food, both fresh and preserved, equipment and surfaces that are easy to clean, and appliances that provide an experience that is more and more connected and personalised.

Hand in hand, consumers are tending to seek interiors that provide a new idea of wellbeing that translates into sophisticated air and water filtration systems, sterilisation of surfaces by means of infrared technology, and lighting systems synchronised to circadian rhythms. From an aesthetic perspective, colours and finishes are selected that provide joy and inspiration in the most creative room in the house.
