In the showroom, our fundamental premise was to give importance to the products, exposing them as a work of art. We designed a perforated sheet metal frame, with the objective of showcasing the wide range of products in a versatile and continuous way. With the repetition of this metal structures that contain the product throughout the space, we achieve a powerful, linear exposition that highlights the product. Cast iron was chosen as the main material for its robust character and to provide contrast with the innovative and technological exposed products. On other hand, large retro-illuminated platforms were designed to expose the most technical material. As a theatrical space, and thought as a division between the technical products and the domestic, we place the tasting room. This space contrasts with the industrial aspect of the rest of the showroom, closed off by an off-white linen curtain set on a rectangular track which integrates a perimeter of Liebherr wineries. The show cooking area is located in the centre of the space and consists of two Bulthaup kitchens. These create an innovative space and help showcase the products at the hands of professional chefs.
