Delivering exceptional kitchens

The kitchen has slowly moved from a space reserved for simply cooking and preparing food, to becoming the entertainment hub of the home, and appliances used for cooking have now become a statement on their own.

High-end appliances improve resale, allow for gourmet cooking and provide proper temperature controls, all while looking sleek and sustaining durability, efficiency and longevity.  Ikon have multiple appliances that are ideal for connecting food culture with advanced technology

Ceiling Rangehoods are a great option for cooking in combination with island bench units.  Sleek and stylish the slimline design of these products means the homeowner can enjoy open plan living and socialize without a big bulky rangehood getting in the way.  They can inserted into the ceiling, hidden away or created as a feature and can be used up to 3 meters away from the cooking zone. They are frequently used overseas in cultures where island cooking is a priority, New Zealand is just starting to take on this trend.

With a controlled environment perfectly suited to meet the needs of both young and aged wine, our beverage cabinet not only protects and stores wine but does so efficiently and affordably.  It offers the convenience of being able to store wine in one dedicated spot that can fit anywhere from a kitchen counter to a built-in unit which fits right in with the kitchen cabinets. Rather than storing wine in a basement or closet, wine can be right there in the kitchen near the preferred serving area – bring your wine cellar right into the kitchen.

On the cutting edge of cooking technology today are steam/convection ovens. Steam is one of the healthiest ways to cook a meal. Traditional ovens pull moisture out of the food as it cooks, while in a steam oven food is cooked in its own juices, enhancing flavor and retaining nutrients. Ikon have a range of steam ovens that will add a touch of class to any kitchen. Aside from the benefits of hydrolytic cleaning, our Hydrolytic™ convection & steam oven features EzyKleen Oleophobic (oil repelling) enamel which has been scientifically proven to repel grease and dirt, making cleaning up a breeze.

Perhaps the most overlooked, yet most critical function in the kitchen is the tap and sink with the most used appliance in the kitchen being the tap/sink combination. On average, a family of four will use their sink area 20-30 times a day. We encourage designers to think about reallocating budgets towards this most heavily used ‘appliance’ allowing clients to spend more for better quality and more attractive solutions.
