I’m inlove with this kitchen concept! – Electrolux Grand Cuisine and Poggenpohl have joined forces to create a unique concept for the ultimate home kitchen – a place where gastronomy, creativity, and interior design come together seamlessly.
THE FOURTH WALL
A concept kitchen with an element of drama. Imagine cooking, entertaining and living in a kitchen that’s a hub of creativity, a celebration of good food, and a showcase for all to enjoy. That’s the Fourth Wall concept. It’s a partnership between Electrolux Grand Cuisine and Poggenpohl to create the perfect environment for storing food, cooking and dining. Using the latest technologies in food storage, and with the professional-quality components of Grand Cuisine at its core, this is a kitchen without boundaries.
Its name is inspired by the invisible ‘fourth wall’ that separates actors from audience in the theatre. In the Fourth Wall concept kitchen, the use of intelligent materials that can switch from opaque to transparent breaks down the barrier between host and guest, to create an exceptional multi-functional environment. The Fourth Wall celebrates good food in the heart of the home – incorporating cooking, socialising and dining into one space.
PREPARATION & COOKING
Now the cook takes centre stage. Using the power and precision of components like The Sear Hob, The Gas Hob, The Combination Oven and The Blast Chiller, raw ingredients are transformed into glorious dishes as tantalising aromas drift upwards.
The conversation flows easily, with guests enjoying wine served at its ideal temperature. Touches of the finest craftsmanship, such as interesting veneers, natural stone and clever detailing in brass catch the eye. Hand crafted handles appear to float in mid-air as the Intelligent Surfaces they’re affixed to shift from solid colour to glass-like transparency. In the background the cool glass and bevelled metal edges of the cooking system complement the décor without dominating it.
