Advanced technology and modern design feature in the integrated Smeg Linear Collection

The kitchen is increasingly being designed in sympathy with the open-plan living space, so it's vital that it enhances this wider aesthetic.

To this end, many homeowners are opting to fully integrate or conceal their high-quality appliances behind matching cabinetry. Always ahead of emerging trends, Smeg offers several options, says Smeg Australia's Jim Kalotheos.

"Consumers can choose between the all-stainless-steel Classic Collection, designed by Guido Canali; the contemporary, sleek glass and stainless steel Linear range; and the vintage aesthetic of the Victoria Collection.

"For those opting for the fully integrated or concealed look, the Linear range is currently the most popular. This offers a clean, minimalist aesthetic with the Stopsol glass front available in black, white or a silver mirror finish and trimmed in Smeg's satin stainless steel. The distinctive control knobs are in transparent polycarbonate, backlit with LEDs.

The Linear Collection includes built-in ovens, compact microwaves, steam ovens and coffee machines plus cooktops, and rangehoods.

As with every Smeg Collection, Linear is noted for its advanced technology. Features include Thermoseal, for humidity control and a cooler, cleaner kitchen; SmartSense programs or SmartSense Plus menus to guide you through all the options for any given recipe; and Pyrolytic cleaning or Vapour Clean. They also include Eco cooking options and soft close doors.
