It was here that the philosophy that is still in demand today was formed: each object should perform its practical functions and be convenient, accessible and beautiful.

Olga Lesina, interior designer: - The kitchen is a place where everything should be at hand. This makes work more efficient and the mood better. German design 100 percent fulfills all tasks related to convenience, functionality, ergonomics of all parts of the set - from handles to built-in scales, from the material of the countertop to the lines of the facade. All the contents of the drawers and cabinets are thought out in advance, you do not have to decide on your own where it is best to store spices, put a trash can, arrange a place for household appliances.

In 1927, it was invented by a female architect working in Berlin, Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky. Having carefully studied all the movements of the housewife during work with a stopwatch, she created a modular design that occupied only 6.5 square meters - not a single millimeter was wasted. 18 trays, sliding doors, compact built-in furniture, thoughtful placement of every detail - all this saved the housewife's time. The idea became the prototype of modern kitchens based on the achievements of the science of ergonomics - a discipline about the effective interaction of man with the environment.Modern reconstruction of the "Frankfurt kitchen"Kitchen ORLANDO | CLASSIC-FS 2 by Leicht, showroom “Kitchen interiors”Kitchen Twelve Handle by Varenna factory, showroom “Kitchen interiors”Kitchen Vida by EWE factory, showroom “Kitcheninteriors” Functionality The proof of the unrivaled functionality of German kitchens is their internal filling and equipment, solving all possible problems.

Just a few years ago, cabinets that opened as if by magic from one touch seemed fantastic. Now they are widespread and popular, and the mechanisms are constantly being improved - the opening is smooth, the door can rise up or move to the sides and stop moving when it encounters an obstacle.
