A Lasting Relationship

What began at the turn of the millennium has grown into a long-standing relationship, underpinned by mutual trust and a shared vision of delivering exceptional homes equipped with stylish, performance-driven appliances. Over the years, both the homebuilding and appliance industries have evolved significantly, with fashions coming and going, yet the partnership between Smeg and Scotia Homes has remained strong and enduring.

Where It Began

Back in 2000, the millennium bug dominated news, broadband internet was just coming into homes, and Nokia 3310’s were the phone of the moment. Gladiator topped the box office, Big Brother first aired on screens and David Bowie played his last every Glastonbury, while Coldplay announced their debut album. During this time, kitchens were beginning to shift from purely functional spaces to the design-led, lifestyle hubs we see today, with open-plan spaces and kitchen islands making kitchens the heart of the home. Smeg’s signature style and innovation helped shape that shift- focal points in the kitchen - just as Scotia Homes led the way in modern housebuilding across Scotland.

“While the way we build homes and the technology inside them has transformed over the past 25 years, our core values haven’t changed.” Paul Bretherton, Northern Contracts Manager, Smeg UK
