We are honored to announce that one of our first J*GAST Kitchen Prototypes is now exhibited at the Pinakothek der Moderne. This prestigious venue is home to the Neue Sammlung, one of the world’s leading design museums, celebrated for its comprehensive collection of 20th and 21st-century design artifacts. The exhibition ‘Kitchen Culture’ not only features our J*GAST prototype but also showcases pivotal kitchen solutions that have shaped modern living spaces. Noteworthy among these is the iconic Frankfurter Kitchen, which revolutionized home efficiency in the early 20th century, and the Functionalist architecture of the Unité d’habitation’s kitchen by Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand, and André Wogenscky. Arne Jacobsen’s contributions are also highlighted, featuring his kitchen design for a detached house at the 1957 International Building Exhibition in Berlin, which emphasized central spatial solutions in residential architecture. By placing J*GAST alongside such significant historical innovations like Stefan Wewerka’s Kitchen Tree and Herbert H. Schultes’s workbench model, which reimagine kitchen spaces with modern irony and functionality, the exhibition highlights the ongoing evolution and cultural impact of kitchen design throughout the last century.
