Kitchen Perfection - Fisher & Paykel's New Black Kitchen Suite

A 60cm built-in oven, glass ceramic cooktop available in gas, electric and induction, French-door stainless-steel refrigerator, classic cooker, and stainless steel DishDrawer are now all available in black. These black products harness the versatility of black, which can either act as a bold statement or visually recede depending on the design context. In this way, Fisher & Paykel’s black appliances offers a far greater level of flexibility that allows designers to work with, rather than around, the appliances. The black appliances, thus, become a design statement in their own right, while also providing high-performance functionality.

Whether blending seamlessly with dark cabinetry or standing as a minimalist contrast with a pale timber kitchen, the black built-in oven emphasises a considered approach to design. On close inspection, the oven exhibits subtle layers of detail and texture. The brushing and fine machining of the dials make every touchpoint beautiful to use, while the display is almost invisible until it is brought to life with understated lighting at the touch of a dial.

Meanwhile, in contrast to the minimalism of the built-in black oven, the robust form of the black classic cooker makes a strong monochromatic statement in the kitchen. While it is inspired by heritage styling and the traditional range cooker, the black classic cooker delivers the latest in cooking technology befitting the contemporary kitchen.

Where architects and designers previously resorted to integrating refrigerators and dishwashers into the cabinetry to hide them from view, the black refrigerator and DishDrawer achieve a balance that is subtle without being hidden. Both the black refrigerator and the black Dishdrawer employ black EZKleen stainless steel with black handles, the materiality of the appliances enabling them to become key pieces in the kitchen.

The fridge features ActiveSmart technology that adapts to daily use, adjusting temperature, humidity and airflow to keep food fresher for longer. The DishDrawer exemplifies a similarly high level of functionality, with the double drawers able to be used together on different wash cycles or one at a time.

Finally, the black glass ceramic cooktop is minimalist and contemporary, designed to create a seamless aesthetic in the kitchen. A variety of sizes and configurations deliver greater freedom and functionality, while the option of gas, induction or electric suit any cooking preference.

Responding to the changing nature of the contemporary kitchen, Fisher & Paykel has combined the functionality and technological innovation for which they have become renowned with the new black facades that give architects and designers greater freedom than ever before. As such, each of these appliances represents the next step in Fisher & Paykel’s quest for kitchen perfection.
