Signature Kitchen Suite, the fresh, new brand in the luxury kitchen appliance market, is bringing together seasoned design professionals from across the country in a new Design Council to provide a forum for collaboration on product development and insightful dialogue on industry trends.
Signature Kitchen Suite is respectfully disrupting the status quo in the staid luxury kitchen appliance category with its portfolio of cutting-edge and high-end offerings led by the 48-in. dual-fuel pro range with built-in sous-vide modality, along with induction and gas, on the cooktop and new integrated wine column refrigerators. Leveraging their expertise on the luxury design marketplace, Signature Kitchen Suite Design Council members will advise on future product designs and features, while serving as a liaison between the brand and ever-changing American luxury home category, according to Signature Kitchen Suite General Manager Zach Elkin.
