Light Up your Life with Miele die Küche

Award winning kitchen manufacturer Miele die Küche says that it is the only company to offer customers a choice of eight different ways to not only illuminate, but enhance their kitchens.

Introducing the moodlight concept, a lighting system which uses both white and coloured lighting to enhance the atmosphere of the room, emphasise its linearity and Illuminate furniture elements, bringing a new dimension to kitchen living.

The moodlight concept can be incorporated into any kitchen design in a variety of different ways, and offers an extensive choice of 23 different colour combinations to ensure the kitchen is always seen in a different light, whatever the time of day.

You can select a specific colour to enhance your mood, pick the automatic colour changing option or save your favourite colours to memory, all with the flick of a switch via the remote control.

The midway system light panel, which scooped a Kitchen Furnishings award at the RedDot Product Design Awards and Gold at the iF Product Design Awards, marries function and style, providing both mood and worktop lighting.

This new LED-lit glass back panel, which can be produced up to three metres in length, evenly illuminates the length of the working area while creating cosy atmospheric lighting. Its stainless coloured framework, with slightly mirrored safety glass provides reflective light even when the lighting is switched off. While the horizontally ribbed reflective back panel directs the light straight back onto the work surface, preventing any glare. And what’s more this lighting module has an extremely narrow depth of only 45mm enabling virtually full depth of the worktop to be used.

Or why not marry form and function with Miele die Küche’s range of glazed units with integrated LED lighting? These units can be designed to fit any kitchen, working equally well as wall units or as a more decorative living area piece, and the use of glass and aluminium automatically introduces more light into a darker space. The bank of four units look particularly effective as the wall of light steeps the kitchen in ever changing hues.

Console lighting for installation in the top or bottom of units casts an even light for working in, as well as providing attractive internal cupboard lighting and enhancing the overall appearance of the wall units.

To further set the scene Miele die Küche can provide lighting consoles used for shelving and built in lights within the wall units. Whilst illuminated glass shelving inside Miele die Küche’s units uses LED lighting to light the shelves from behind, to perfectly display the best china and allow a clear view of the contents at all times of the day.

Other new navigational lighting serves as an atmospheric backdrop, utilising integrated aluminium rails with LEDs to illuminate the inside of units, drawers and pull outs, so finding your way couldn’t be easier.

While under worktop lighting and illuminated carcass base units provide mood lighting in fresh, transparent colours to complement or provide contrast to your kitchen colour palette. The under worktop lighting can be added to any combination of worktop or base unit and creates as attractive optical effect with the light flowing down into the shell handle.

Jim Gettings, Managing Director of AFG Kitchens UK who markets and distributes the Miele kitchen brand in the UK comments: 'With today’s ever increasing need for harmonious living designs, the kitchen area has to work harder – its a room of many uses and it should reflect not only the personality of its owner but also complement its surroundings.

'Rather than re-decorate every time you feel like a change, our innovative lighting solutions really can change the mood of the room, and with 23 different colour options, there’s a choice of subtle hues for a romantic dinner or vibrant colours for a party. They say it’s the finishing touches that can make the difference, Miele die Küche gives you eight different ways to do just that.'
