Inside Our 'At Home With SMEG' Winners Dream Kitchen

As part of our 'At Home With SMEG' competition, we invited entrants to share their vision for a dream kitchen featuring SMEG appliances. The prize? The opportunity to bring that vision to life. In total, we received 2,273 incredible entries, each with a unique design.

"The principles stayed largely the same: colour scheme, oak units along the base and flush-to-ceiling cabinets on the wall, lots of texture, wood and plants.

The big pivot was dropping the iconic red fridge, but this particular kitchen admittedly works better with an integrated fridge freezer. The Victoria oven was a total non-negotiable, and I love how much it fits with the heritage of our home, which was built in the 1870s, whilst still having that iconic SMEG character."

"The Vented Induction Hob is fantastic. It heats instantly and precisely, and the bridging zones mean I can cook large family meals with ease. It's incredibly easy to clean too, taking no more than 30 seconds. Because the extractor is built in, it removes the need for a separate unit, and it's surprisingly powerful.

The Bean-to-Cup coffee machine works hard for us on busy mornings. It adjusts instantly for strength and drink size; it's incredibly easy to use, and there's nothing better than walking into the kitchen to the smell of freshly brewed coffee. It means I'm no longer embarrassed by the quality of coffee I serve to family and friends."
