In 2000, the Pininfarina Studio restyled the Ola kitchen giving it new handles, new colours, a new worktop in steel and new wall units, while maintaining the technical content of the kitchen and the iconic curved look that it became known for.
After 20 years, Snaidero decided it was once again time to invest in Ola and bring it up to date with a contemporary new look. The ambitious project combined Snaidero’s design history with a renewed combination of tradition and invention.
The result of the project is the Ola20 kitchen. With a new softer look, the kitchen retains many of its original features but incorporates refined aesthetic choices. The domed extractor is retained and the doors have been given a more minimalist look with the addition of integrated handles. A new worktop support has also been introduced for island units and peninsula bar units and it is this highly sculpted design that gives the kitchen that unmistakable touch of Pininfarina.
Designing an iconic product is often no longer enough to guarantee success. Those forward-thinking companies that want to stay on top of their game have to ensure that their designs remain relevant in this fast-paced world. By reinventing the Ola kitchen, Snaidero has brought it into the present day ensuring that this cult classic is just as appealing now as it was when it was first introduced to the market.
