The Evolution of Kitchen Designs:
70 Years of Snaidero Kitchens

 

Snaidero Kitchens has been part of the evolution of kitchen designs for over 70 years now. Indeed, many of its designers have played a role in shaping this evolution. Let’s take a tour through the modern history of kitchen designs until we reach the present day.

When Snaidero founder, Rino Snaidero, first chose to become a cabinetmaker in 1946, he initially targeted bedroom furniture, but by 1959, it was kitchen design that captured his imagination sufficiently to make it his business’s specialty. Until now, kitchens were seen as utility areas where none but the lowly ventured, however, this was set to change.

The renowned car designer adapted his skill to kitchens and said he aimed to design the ideal “machine for living in.”

A standard design might fit an able-bodied person, but what about a disabled person? Would a particular design suit people who are short as well as it would suit those who were tall? The concept of a truly customizable kitchen began to gain momentum and Snaidero was at the forefront of the movement. Design became people focussed.

Having met already-identified needs, the questions was: “What needs have we missed? What developments in design thinking are due for attention next?” To answer these questions, Snaidero began its own research foundation. Thus, the kitchen progresses beyond functionality, through design aesthetics and personalization, and into the realm of science.

Will Snaidero’s kitchens stand the test of time? A look back to the 60’s tells us that, yes, they can!
