MODERNIZED KITCHEN COLLECTION GORENJE 10/11

Premiered at this year’s Gorenje Trade Show@Home Interior

Gorenje Home Interior Division has a long tradition in kitchen manufacturing, spanning nearly six decades. In Gorenje’s jubilee year, the company that currently manufactures and markets kitchens under Gorenje and Marles brands launched a completely modernized collection of kitchen furniture. In addition, a multitude of updates in the living room as well as bathroom and ceramic tiles were introduced this year to round off the offer.

After a thorough analysis of kitchen furniture portfolio under the Gorenje and Marles brands, Gorenje Home Interior Division decided that the two brands would be repositioned. “We have refreshed, revived and standardized the entire kitchen assortment of both trademarks. We kept the best-selling kitchens while either discontinuing or replacing the rest with selected new kitchen collections. This will slash our costs while a well thought out marketing strategy, coupled with a rich and wide offer, will lead to better sales. All these measures are aimed at becoming the leading trademark of kitchen furniture in the markets of the Western Balkans,” predicted Uroš Marolt, Gorenje Management Board Member in charge of for Gorenje Home Interior Division.

The new generation of kitchens brings a variety of materials, exceptional design and highly functional as well as practical solutions in drawer and cupboard opening, lighting and arrangement of space. Design follows the latest trends and it is attuned to the designer lines of Gorenje home appliances, which shows in the clean lustrous surfaces, specially designed handles, and rounded sides, the hallmark of the brand's most recent lines of appliances. This gives Gorenje a competitive edge in the built-in home appliances sales as the company offers a truly comprehensive range of kitchen products.

New kitchens are premiered at this year’s Gorenje Trade Show@Home Interior held at Gorenje Showroom in Velenje where over 650 business partners and reporters from 24 countries are expected in the two days of the event.

In addition to new kitchen programs, the refurbished showroom will also display the novelties in home appliances, furniture, bathrooms, and ceramic tiles.

KITCHEN AND LIVING ROOM – TWO IN ONE

Trends in the development of kitchen furniture are expanding to other spaces in our homes as well. The kitchen and the living room are merging into a single room as they are both delineated and joined by a kitchen island or block extension. This yields a space that combines culinary creativity with socializing. Some kitchen cupboards are combined into modules with parts of living room furniture; colours and materials complement each other to create a harmonious space that makes socializing a real pleasure, whether it is at the kitchen countertop, at the dinner table, or on the living room carpet.

One notable advantage of Gorenje's offer is its completeness and comprehensiveness: modern kitchen furniture is aesthetically complemented by state-of-the-art Gorenje built-in appliances.

Superiorly designed home appliances Gorenje designed by Karim Rashid will blend seamlessly into a harmonious whole with the straight lines and glossy surfaces of the KIRA or FORTUNA kitchens.Rounded lines on the appliances are echoed by the rounded cabinets at the ends of the cabinet setup.

Appliances of the Gorenje Simplicity line will fit wonderfully into the NOLA kitchens distinctive for their high lustre acryl finish.

New trends in the living room furniture

THE COMFORT OF LIVING

The open area design and linking it as a multi-purpose space are the main characteristics of contemporary living, which is followed by furniture that has been exemplary sparse in the last few years.

The main focal accents of new elements in the living room furniture are straight lines of lower elements and variety in hanging elements. Also, those hanging elements can be interlinked with shelves.TV element is no longer the classically bulky component but it is instead incorporated in the clean lines of other elements. Generally, there is an empty space above it, so the TV set can be attached to the wall.

VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL

Elements can be added to one of the living room walls that allow for vertical or horizontal hanging attachments. At the same time elements can create a finished space, of the living room composition, in the geometrical shape of the square or the rectangle which, in the middle, has a large open space for the TV set.

Looking at the colour palette, the contrasting white-black combination in matte sheen is still trend du jour, this time variegated with pastel tones of olive green, the colour of cappuccino and always fashionable colour of wood, from light oak to dark walnut.
