Poggenpohl Kitchen by Hadi Teherani

World premiere at the Milan Furniture Fair in April – “Unification of Furniture Design and Architecture”

Herford, 09.03.2010

World premiere for a new kitchen concept from Poggenpohl: Premium kitchen manufacturer Poggenpohl will be presenting a new kitchen design to the public for the first time at the “Salone Internazionale del Mobile” International Furniture Fair taking place in Milan from 14 to 19 April 2010. The space-creating concept was developed in collaboration with the renowned and much acclaimed Hamburg architect and designer Hadi Teherani.

The new kitchen from Poggenpohl is distinguished by an all-embracing solution in which room architecture and kitchen merge into one. “The new kitchen’s identity is characterised by a unification of furniture design and architecture”, emphasises Elmar Duffner, Managing Director of Poggenpohl Möbelwerke GmbH. The kitchen concept from designer Hadi Teherani will be available in a number of different versions – taken from a basic model.

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.
