Design beyond the obvious

In every design we create, every product we launch, a lot of work goes on behind the scene. Hours of study, research, trial and error, until everything finally comes together to produce the perfect, final polished appliance you purchase to form part of your chosen kitchen design.

Siemens Design - Detail oven

Handpicked materials

Premium materials, like high quality glass and steel combine together to stir the senses with their colour and texture while remaining highly functional.

Siemens Design -  Hood detail blue lights

Beyond functionality

The lights colour combination of steel blue and polar white shapes the design of Siemens appliances. The white light is functional, while the steel blue light introduces bright accents. Programme status and process-related information are displayed clearly and intelligently.

Siemens Design - fridge superfrost detail

Experience is everything

The tile design is an integral part of the well-thought-out design structure of the Siemens user interface. It divides the operating surface into clearly defined interaction zones, enabling smooth navigation and access to everything you want and need at the touch of a finger.

Award winning design

We do our very best to make our designs meaningful for you. Beautiful in your eyes, functional for your needs. And we excel in that.

Siemens Design - Interior Kitchen

We strive designing it, so you can stand out

Curiosity at heart

Siemens Design - inspiration mood

The world inspires us

You can find inspiration everywhere. During the process of creating, we pay attention to every detail, always keeping our eyes and minds open. We look for references that last into the future: like the harmony of a city skyline, or the boldness of architectural landmarks. This is the start of our design process: looking at the world with a different perspective - translating it into the Siemens design language.

A glimpse at our process

Siemens Design - Process

You, at the centre

You are at the centre of our design process. We challenge ourselves to find innovative solutions to meet your demands, to create appliances that not only live up to your standards but exceed your expectations. That is why we are always looking into new directions, curious to find new designs, materials and technologies. Combining these elements to create appliances that will fit with your lifestyle and answer some of your challenges.

Siemens Design - Agile working

Effective way of working

We tackle problems in the most effective way. With agile working methods, we are able to speed up our processes to achieve better solutions and faster results. Implementing these methods not only help us to complete projects more efficiently, but also reminds us that the best solutions are the ones that understand your needs, now and in the future.

Siemens Design - Process sketching

The start

A blank canvas, a pen and an idea. That’s how every design starts. Four dots connecting to form a square.

With fundamentals in our inspirations, sketching can open doors to new ideas; it allows us to explore different concepts, roughly evaluate them and confirm if a certain direction has potential.

Siemens Design - process virtual reality

Making it digital

VR is where designs start coming to life. With 3D data and CAD files, virtual reality allows us to have the first and more realistic interaction with the appliance. Opening doors, checking its inside, looking at designs from every angle – here, projects get more tangible, thanks to advanced technology.

Siemens Design - Process Prototyping

Testing the concept

Prototypes are mainly created for us to try out a completely different design - and do it quickly. Needs little effort to build it, but it gives us the flexibility to play around with it: how does it feel, how can it be opened, how can it be loaded, etc. It allows us to see what the structure could be like. And in case we think it won’t work for you, it’s easy to discard it.
