Poggenpohl Kitchen by Hadi Teherani Premiered at Eurocucina part of the Milan Furniture Fair in April.

The space creating concept was developed in collaboration with the renowned Hamburg, Germany architect and designer Hadi Teherani. The new kitchen from Poggenpohl is distinguished by an all-embracing solution in which room architecture and the kitchen merge into one. “ The new kitchen’s identity is characterized by a unification of furniture design and architecture,” emphasizes Elmar Duffner, Managing Director of Poggenpohl Mobelwerke GmbH. The kitchen concept from designer Hadi Teherani will be available in a number of different versions – taken from a basic model.

Born in Teheran, 56-year-old Hadi Teherani is one of the world’s most sought-after German architects. With Hadi Teherani AG, the company he founded in 2003, and his BRT Architekten Hamburg team of architects, he has made a name for himself on the international stage with industrial design and interior design made in Germany.

In addition, the latest Mineral-Inspired cabinetry colors and finishes and new shelving system will be presented. Here’s more info below:


Poggenpohl +SEGMENTO Kitchen with Curite


Poggenpohl’s mineral-inspired colors in melamine or lacquer cabinetry have never before been seen in a kitchen:

· Cubanite – a beige tone

· Oxide – a light blue

· Fluorite – a modest green

· and Curite – a fresh coppery orange (as shown in the shelving area in the photo)

They can be ordered either as a complete kitchen or simply as a "dash of color." A cool Polar White, a wood finish in Sand Pine (as shown in the photo, with or without aluminium edges) as well as a Holm Oak wood veneer round off the new cabinetry selection.The new shelf system creates a perfect visual and functional link between cooking and living areas.
