7 Kitchens That’ll Make You Want to Run Out and Buy Smeg Appliances
If you thought there was no such thing as a stylish kitchen appliance then you’ve obviously never seen a Smeg. Best known for its colorful, retro 1950s-style refrigerators, the Italian company offers an array of high-end stainless steel statement appliances — think toasters, coffee makers, stoves, and more — designed to bring a burst of color and personality to your kitchen.
We searched our house tours high and low and rounded up some of the dreamiest kitchens with Smeg appliances for the ultimate kitchen inspiration. Here are seven Smeg-clad kitchens to swoon over.
Double the Fun
The only thing better than an eye-catching Smeg appliance in your kitchen is two. Case in point: Caroline and Simon Rowland’s London kitchen, where you’ll find a mint green refrigerator and a chic white oven, both by Smeg, that draw from the colorful tile flooring in the room.
True Blue
Nothing brightens up a neutral kitchen like a bold refrigerator. Do yourself a favor and employ a Smeg fridge in an especially eye-catching shade to energize a monochrome kitchen, like the royal blue one we spotted in Tami and Gleb’s Barcelona, Spain abode does.
Pink Power
A little bit of pale pink goes a long way in a kitchen. Take a cue from Lara Ivachev and opt for a sprightly pink Smeg toaster (instead of a traditional one) to make a small, but impactful statement, just like she did in her Australian home.
Classic But Cool
Searching for a way to upgrade your kitchen without having to hire a contractor? A classic white Smeg fridge, like the one inside Ilse van Elleswijk’s home in the Netherlands, brings a touch of sophistication to any kitchen that never goes out of style.
Mixed metals
Dreaming of an easy way to revamp your Scandi-style kitchen? Follow in Tracey Tilley’s footsteps and pair a colorful steel Smeg fridge with some shiny copper-finished fixtures to shake things up without straying from the monochrome color palette, just like she did her Detroit, Michigan home.
Blue Heaven
Don’t want much more than a subtle pop of color in your kitchen? Soft, pastel-hued appliances, like the baby blue Smeg fridge we spotted in Haleigh Chastain Walsworth’s Paris apartment, can liven up a colorless kitchen without appearing overly flashy.
Vintage Vibes
When all else fails, you can always count on a Smeg appliance to bring some vintage charm into a kitchen. A pale turquoise refrigerator, like the one we saw in Lauren Wells and Breeze Braunschweig’s New Orleans, Louisiana abode, plays up the retro appeal of the shotgun-style apartment without overwhelming the small space.
