Blum kitchen inspirations

69 EUROPEAN INVENTORS' AWARD Soft-close BLUMOTION has become a standard feature of modern furniture. It won the European Inventors' Award in 2013. PATENTS RANKING Blum has registered more than 1,200 patents worldwide and is one of Austria's biggest patent applicants. DESIGN AWARDS Blum products have won numer- ous design awards presented by independent juries. At Blum, everything revolves around kitchen users and their needs. The same applies in the field of product development, for every innovation is designed to facilitate everyday kitchen use for years to come. This concept also appeals to expert juries, like those of the German Design Council and the European Patent Office that present awards for innovative prod- ucts. Prizes of this kind spur Blum developers on to continue to give their all. Find out about the latest innova- tions when you decide to buy a new kitchen.

With LEGRABOX free, you can choose between various materials such as leather, metal or glass - to suit your requirements and personal taste. The choice of materials not only gives you scope for design. It is practical, too. Take the SPACE TOWER larder unit for example. Using glass design elements gives you clear visibility of contents. Full extensions and lift systems are, for example, the standard today. They have already replaced single extensions and doors on base units and doors on wall cabinets. Very few kitchen buyers want to do without these ergonomic advantages today. Currently, the latest trend is han- dle-less kitchens. You can implement this trend, for example, with electric SERVO-DRIVE. As a result, han- dle-less fronts open at a single touch. They close again softly and effort- lessly with soft-close BLUMOTION.
