The new Dolce Stil Novo line of Smeg home appliances made its debut at Eurocucina 2016. Dolce Stil Novo is an extremely structured range made up of 60 and 45 cm ovens, a blast chiller, multi-functional drawers, gas, induction and mixed hobs, hoods, wine cellars and coffee machines, allowing a wide variety of combinations to be obtained.
The range is so large we’ve decided to concentrate on three products for this post – ovens, hobs and multi-functional drawers.
Ovens
The range is made up of 60 cm pyrolytic and multifunctional ovens, compact combined microwave and steam ovens. When switched off, the ovens appear as elegant volumes through the reflecting and uninterrupted glass surfaces.
When on, they reveal their functionality: a cavity that is completely visible for the whole cooking period, the glass is free of screen printing as the touch controls appear back-lit on the colour display, whilst the handle, a fine band also made of glass, is self-extracting when in use or is extracted by a slight touch.
Hobs
The gas hobs with laminar burners represent a new record of efficiency: the burners, a new Smeg patent, produce a single, vertical blade of fire, which guarantees maximum yield as all the heat dispensed is transferred perpendicularly to the pan. The stainless steel grates are covered with a Titanium treatment which increases their resistance, in particular to heat. The design of the burners perfectly integrated into the stainless steel hobs or in the vitroceramic models make them extremely elegant.
Available in the versions with 4/5/6 burners, the hobs with grates with more creative designs taken from nature, such as birds, butterflies, leaves and fruit, transform the hob into a work of art with a strong aesthetic impact, guaranteeing the same performances as those offered by standard grates.
The range is completed by the new Gas on glass hobs with external burners and a power of up to 6 KW presented in different versions from the Domino one with an ultra-rapid burner to the one with 5 burners, ideal for Asian cuisine, for example, which requires particularly fast cooking times. The look is total black: a black vitroceramic hob, cast iron grates, burners with a Black Ceram finish with a smooth and easy to clean surface and black knobs.
Multi-functional Drawers
To make the alignment of the different appliances equipping large technological walls, which are visually attractive and organized for specific purposes, increasingly functional and not only aesthetic, Smeg offers a series of drawers, again with a front in glass and copper/stainless steel strip: a heating drawer, an extra practical aid to have serving dishes at the perfect temperature to take to the table, a service drawer for the wine cellar to hold utensils for opening, tasting and storing wine and a sous vide drawer which allows sealing food sous vide both to store it for longer and to cook it.
