German Kitchen Center Highlights LEICHT's Rosso Lepanto Installation From Milan Design Week 2026

NEW YORK, NY, September 01, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- German Kitchen Center is highlighting LEICHT Küchen AG's "Rosso Lepanto" kitchen installation, presented during Milan Design Week 2026 in the light-filled Orangery of the Museo Poldi Pezzoli in Milan.

Created under the theme "Art is now," the installation was conceived as more than a kitchen display. LEICHT used the historic museum setting to explore the relationship between kitchen architecture, refined materials and the surrounding interior, demonstrating how a kitchen can become a defining architectural element of the home.

At the center of the installation is a freestanding island block with clean lines and carefully balanced proportions. A generously sized bar top adds a social dimension, creating a natural place for conversation and gathering while preserving the functional role of the island.

The design is distinguished by Rosso Lepanto marble, also known as Rosso Levanto. The stone is known for its deep red to purple coloration and contrasting veining, with tones that can range from white to greenish. Originating in Liguria near Levanto and the Cinque Terre, the material has a long history in European architecture and interior design.

Kitchen Design as Architecture

The Milan presentation reflects a broader direction in contemporary luxury kitchen design: cabinetry, surfaces, lighting, storage and architectural planning are increasingly considered as one composition rather than separate components. The result is a kitchen that supports daily use while contributing strongly to the character of the surrounding living space.

For homeowners, architects and interior designers, this approach changes the starting point of a kitchen project. Instead of selecting cabinets first and adapting the room around them, the design process can begin with the architecture, circulation, natural light, materials and the way people will gather and live in the space.

The Museo Poldi Pezzoli offered a particularly fitting setting for that idea. The museum grew from the 19th-century residence and collection of Milanese nobleman Gian Giacomo Poldi Pezzoli, and its interiors bring together art, architecture and craftsmanship. LEICHT's approximately 100-square-meter installation in the Orangery placed contemporary kitchen architecture within that cultural context.
