Nostalgia influences many aspects of our lives, including the way we live and the materials and items we choose for our homes.

This is a key reason the vintage look is always in vogue, even though it is a world away from sleek finishes, custom-designed cabinetry and integrated appliances. Cupboards, tables and shelving may rarely match, but they work together to convey a nostalgic sense of the past.

But there is usually one hero piece that anchors the space visually, and in many homes this is a Smeg freestanding retro-styled cooker or refrigerator or maybe both.

Vintage styling teamed with 21st-century technology is the key to their popularity. The FAB28 and FAB10H refrigerators, for example, have all the charm of a '50s refrigerator but feature automatic defrost, crystal quick-chill shelves and a tropical rating. The FAB10H is an underbench model in black, red and panna that makes an ideal drinks refrigerator.

The FAB28, with a capacity of 271 litres, is well suited to family needs. This refrigerator is available in a multitude of colours, ranging from strong primaries to soft gelato shades, denim and a black velvet matt finish.

The Victoria freestanding cooker, in black or panna, is worthy of its hero status. The vintage design has a gleaming enamel finish and well-proportioned metal controls. Two six-function 70-litre thermoseal ovens are teamed with a 2700W electric grill, seven-burner gas hob and generous storage drawer. To complete the look there are matching hoods in black and panna.
