Fisher & Paykel will present its State of the Art Collection at EuroCucina during this year’s Milan Design Week. Comprising the company’s flagship luxury appliances across cooking, cooling, dishwashing and wine and fabric care, the State of the Art Collection represents the pinnacle of the brand’s home and kitchen solutions, supporting a quieter, more integrated approach to contemporary living.

Informed by the landscapes and material sensibilities of Aotearoa New Zealand, it unfolds as a sequence of architectural spaces.

Presented within Nature-Ritual, Fisher & Paykel’s immersive, large-scale installation at Rho Fiera, this exhibition marks the company’s most comprehensive showcase of its Series 11 appliances to date. Rather than isolating appliances within the presentation, they will instead be exhibited as part of a cohesive system that allows architects and designers to envisage spaces, layouts and experiences more effortlessly. It’s a move that reflects the company’s continued enquiry into conceiving kitchens and homes as fluid environments shaped by patterns of living.

The framework of the broader installation, Nature-Ritual, reinforces this thinking. Informed by the landscapes and material sensibilities of Aotearoa New Zealand, it unfolds as a sequence of architectural spaces where Minimal Style appliances defined by handle-free interfaces, flush integration and very slight transitions to cabinetry are embedded within their surroundings, supporting the rituals that define everyday life.

Integrated column refrigeration and wine cabinets operate as architectural building blocks, enabling tailored approaches to food preservation and cellaring while maintaining spatial clarity.

In the cooking suite, a systems-led approach emerges. Ovens and cooktops are designed to be stacked, paired or thoughtfully distributed across zones, allowing layouts to respond to individual ways of living and preparing food. A new, large format oven platform, debuting in Milan, combines multi-shelf capacity with steam-assisted cooking, all housed within a restrained, handle-free Minimal Style form that integrates seamlessly into cabinetry.

Elsewhere, integrated column refrigeration and wine cabinets operate as architectural building blocks, enabling tailored approaches to food preservation and cellaring while maintaining spatial clarity. Fabric care is also reconsidered. A new 60cm Minimal Style Fabric Care Cabinet, shown alongside coordinated washers and heat pump dryers, extends the same level of design intent to laundry and garment care, supporting longevity through steam-based cycles and low-heat drying.

Presented within a setting enriched by the company’s values and New Zealand heritage, the State of the Art Collection is a celebration of Fisher & Paykel’s appliances and design philosophies on a global stage.
