Function meets style

New colours and shapes in the kitchen are always first to catch the eye. What we see at first glance – as in so many situations – is what will stay in our minds the longest. In the case of the new products in the Schüller collection, the functions and planning details are what still create a sense of excitement, even if we have long since become used to their appearance. And the icing on the cake: at Schüller, function and style go hand in hand!

As functional as they are modern and stylish, Schüller has rethought its kitchen fittings and taken both consistency and continuity into account.

The best example of this is the top unit with folding door, which fills those unused corners in L-shaped kitchens that we know so well.

Mounted on the worktop, heavy kitchen appliances or the coffee machine can be pulled out so that they are immediately on hand. At the end of a row of units, it provides additional storage space for glasses, plates and jugs. The smart folding door enables the top unit to be opened without taking up space. Thanks to its clean lines and the concealed opening mechanism, the top unit blends in perfectly with the uniform colour of the kitchen front. This unites minimalism and practicality.

Dark rooms with insufficient lighting are a thing of the past with the Schüller 2026 collection. The new mirrored glass recess reflects, for example, the built-in lighting in the support panel top shelves and distributes the light gently and pleasantly throughout the adjacent workspace. This enables plenty of light to be created from just a few light sources, making the room sustainably brighter. Not only the lighting but also the surroundings are mirrored in the recess back panel. Smaller rooms are visually stretched, looking deeper and more spacious. The mirror effect also creates an elegant and stylish impression on guests. 

The new shelving with sliding glass door enables wine glasses and china to be stylishly showcased – protected from dust but still visible. The grey glass design adds lightness to the room and unites function and aesthetics. Integrated into the wall units or kitchen island, the transparent design creates an open, modern atmosphere. This not only makes the kitchen a functional workspace but also the social hub of the home.

No cellar doesn’t have to mean no storage space! Schüller’s built-in larder is subtly concealed behind the kitchen fronts. The new double access door measures 100 cm across and blends seamlessly into the kitchen. Camouflaged as a unit front, consistency and continuity are maintained. Provisions are out of sight but still close at hand. The shorter single doors with a smaller opening radius mean that less space is required. This is perfect for narrower transition areas and the quicker opening of the doors is appreciated when cooking.

Worktops have a huge impact on how the kitchen looks. The previous Schüller range features two thicknesses, creating very different looks: the thicker 39 mm version and the slimmer 16 mm one. To create a pleasant compromise, an in-between size of 25 mm has now been added. Stone and wood decors stand out more on this edge than on slimmer worktops. What’s more, the new worktop thickness coordinates perfectly with the existing support panels and support panel open shelf units of this size, which ensures harmonious designs. Trendy and functional – convincing arguments for the new worktop thickness!

A world first from Bosch – presented by Schüller at house4kitchen: the Bosch vacuum and mop robot. This convenient combination of a self-driving vacuum cleaner with a mop function has been given an innovative upgrade. At Küchenmeile, Bosch and Schüller demonstrate the first vacuum and mop robot with a direct fresh and wastewater connection, as well as a cleaning function for vacuum tanks and mops – subtly concealed in the sink unit. This means that the robot not only cleans the floor independently but also cleans itself. Thanks to close collaboration in the design process, Schüller was able to prepare for the technical requirements in terms of compatibility, functionality and precision of fit. The robot is compatible with plinth heights over 10 cm and can be discreetly integrated into the sink unit with its station and black cover.

Schüller not only opts for innovation through new products but is also continuously optimising existing solutions. The changeover from cruciform to in-line plates for hinges means a less bulky, more elegant look. The new in-line plates allow for a slimmer, modern design. And once again, technical finesse combined with elegant details is showcased even inside the unit, which is especially easy on the eye in glass display units.

The folding fittings have also been improved: since May 2025, better damping mechanisms have enabled softer opening and closing and more reliable stopping in intermediate positions. A built-in opening angle limiter in units with folding flaps also prevents the flaps from hitting the ceiling or adjacent doors – and it can now be easily adjusted.

“What works good is better than what looks good, because what works good lasts.” Ray Eames, one of the most influential designers of the 20th century, puts into words what Schüller stands for. Functionality and sustainability in unison with design make Schüller kitchens a reliable hub for family life.
