A kitchen is not just for one person, but also for its surroundings. It transforms a flat into a home and a house into a home. In a good kitchen, you will not only find plates, pans and cutlery, but also personal items. It is more than just a workplace or part of a production process. A kitchen is the centre, a point of reference and an indication of those who move around in it. It reflects its inhabitants.
A good kitchen brings people together
When cooking with friends, it is important to take the number of guests into account when planning to ensure that there is enough food and ingredients. It is advisable to use the best and ideally regional products. The equipment also plays an important role, which is why a kitchen from Poggenpohl, Germany’s oldest kitchen manufacturer, is a good choice.
+MODO is the premium cuisine of creatives and artists
The Poggenpohl +MODO is a model in the field of tension between architectural contrasts: cool stone meets warm wood, an open kitchen island meets locked tall cabinets and cube-shaped glass showcases meet individual exhibits.
+MODO The philosophy of the architect Jorge Pensi
When architect Jorge Pensi was commissioned by Poggenpohl in 2005 to develop the new +MODO model, he decided to create a harmonious piece of kitchen culture from opposites. He wanted to incorporate Poggenpohl’s decades of experience and its status as a luxury kitchen manufacturer into the design of +MODO. At the same time, he wanted to put his own stamp on objects of simple stringency, which architects love so much. The result is an aesthetically pleasing designer kitchen that offers a high level of functionality and creates a harmonious overall look thanks to the contrast between closed and open elements. Pensi describes it as a landscape of horizontal lines, flooded with light and consisting of a combination of cold and warm materials. The kitchen is simple, but still has a clear identity that fulfils the wishes of the consumer and the architect.
