+SEGMENTO: The kitchen for purists and aesthetes Concentrating on the essentials. Without embellishments and ornaments, but with lots of precision and elegance. +SEGMENTO impresses purists with its simple but effective lines. The handless surfaces give the kitchen a minimalist appearance. Individual elements, like the island, work like a sculpture by doing away with anything that is superfluous. A timeless composition of style and stillness.
+SEGMENTO: The kitchen for purists and aesthetes +SEGMENTO has been one of the established classics in the Poggenpohl portfolio since 2000. No kitchen is more restrained in its design and yet impressive due to its clear lines and pragmatic functionality.
+VENOVO
Yes, it’s just a piece of furniture, but what a piece! +VENOVO is a unique piece with its very own style. Kitchen furniture borrowed from the living room, timeless, elegant, floating. With all the attributes that distinguish living room furniture. And yet with the usual perfectionism with regard to functionality in a Poggenpohl kitchen. A kitchen that fits into any life and yet stands out due to its uniqueness. That doesn’t need any extra space but enriches the room. It doesn’t need a grand appearance, a wow effect. Instead, it simply belongs, like a good friend, your favourite shirt, your favourite meal. Not a kitchen but freedom.
+SEGMENTO Y
+SEGMENTO Y acquires its minimalist look thanks to its handleless design and no decorative frills. And what’s more: the kitchen is given an architecturally influenced character due to its floor-to-ceiling installation and the lateral finish due to indirect light. These timeless aesthetics are continued in the choice of colours. Available exclusively in black, white and grey, there are still a whole range of possible combinations. The innovative, very matt and modern nanotech surface prevents fingerprints and is used for the worktop, niche, fronts, bases etc.
+MODO
An exciting contrast of open and closed, solid and delicate. A kitchen that constantly diverts the gaze with its surfaces and open spaces. Open, pull-out trays accentuate the free spirit with which + MODO presents itself. Favourite pieces are no longer hidden and are presented remarkably and naturally. Other things remain behind doors and in drawers, as usual. The solid worktop seems to float above the rest of the structural components. A kitchen as creative and exciting as the life taking place within it.
Every kitchen of ours is individually adjusted to the customers needs. The better we address your wishes, needs and special features the more satisfied your will be with your Poggenpohl kitchen. It is our aspiration to enhance kitchens: With unsurpassed quality and a high degree of individuality. This aspiration is honoured by our customers.
Space for Family Life
I would highly recommend Poggenpohl and particularly their in-house designer Kevin Robertson. We asked Kevin for a contemporary kitchen with clean lines that wouldn’t date, as well as creating something unique. Having seen Poggenpohl’s concept kitchen The Fourth Wall we were inspired to include a bar area which resulted in Kevin designing a bespoke glass cabinet with a back lit wine/champagne insert. We chose Poggenpohl because German made kitchens are high quality with strong design and engineering, which was really important to us.
We looked at a number of options but Poggenpohl was the one that combined robust construction with style. We liked Kevin’s design for the space from the start, but it was helpful that we could explore different options. Kevin showed us visuals of how alternative colours would look. The visuals were very realistic and helped us decide on the final finish. Kevin made the whole experience stress free and gave us a kitchen we truly LOVE! He has a real eye for detail and design. A complete pleasure to work with!

The Easy Way to the Perfect Kitchen
Natasha and her team were extremely knowledgeable and professional in their approach to creating a wonderful kitchen for us.

We never felt hurried when making decisions and we appreciated her honesty when choosing the products that would be right for us. The whole process from start to finish including planning, delivery, installation, demonstration and sparkle cleaning was a stress free experience. You always get a warm welcome in the showroom.
Poggenpohl designs and ranges have amassed many international awards through the decades, a reflection of more than 120 years of design innovation. Timeless design, attention to detail and enduring quality have given Poggenpohl a global reputation. Awards and accolades confirm the company’s pre-eminence; a Poggenpohl kitchen represents a fusion of form with function that transcends fashion.
German Design Award & Iconic Best of Best
The ICONIC AWARDS as well as the German Design Awards continue to be among the internationally most important awards for top design. Not for the first time, Poggenpohl has won both awards, thus confirming its long-term tradition of being a developer of sustainable and evolutionary designs. We see +VENOVO as an iconic product that is to inspire our demanding customers to think innovatively when it comes to their living rooms, kitchens and dreams.
Poggenpohl expects its kitchens to work faultlessly for decades after installation. So from our drawer runners to door hinges, we build our kitchens to last. At our production facility in Herford, Germany, we aim for unsurpassed quality in every detail, down to the smooth, seamless hand-finish on doors and surfaces.
Made in Germany
Poggenpohl has been making kitchens since 1892, and our worldwide reputation is based on our refusal to accept anything other than the best, whether in materials or workmanship. At our factory in Herford, East-Westphalia, we combine the best of traditional craftsmanship with the precision of modern engineering. All our kitchens are carefully crafted and inspected before being despatched around the world to their new owners. Many of our craftsmen and women learned their skills as apprentices and now in turn pass their experience and knowledge on to the next generation of Poggenpohl craftspeople.
Unsurpassed quality
There are many good reasons for choosing a Poggenpohl kitchen. These include the wide choice of finishes and materials; enduring construction; made to measure individuality; and the highest standards of quality.
Yet there is ultimately a single, overriding reason why: our customers can be sure that they will get the very best from us. The very best quality, the longest life and the very best of support. A Poggenpohl kitchen is an investment for life.
Lifetime Service
When a customer takes delivery of a Poggenpohl kitchen that’s the beginning, not the end of the relationship. We provide a personalised service card which is our clients’ passport to a lifetime of support and care. It’s the customer’s proof that we have all the details of their kitchen on record, so that in future any additional cabinets or replacement components can be provided via their Poggenpohl studio. We have supplied replacement door hinges for Poggenpohl kitchens built over four decades ago – and even earlier.
A Poggenpohl kitchen is built to order. Our designers start with a blank sheet of paper – and the customer’s brief. The home, tastes and way of life of each client is considered before our skilled designers begin to create a kitchen that is precisely designed for the space and the people who will use it.
Every cabinet, drawer and worktop is built to the precise dimensions of the customer's home at our factory in Herford, right down to the last millimetre of space. That’s why every Poggenpohl kitchen is as individual as our customers are.
Selecting your Finish
Every one of the Poggenpohl colours comes in a wide choice of finishes which can make a significant difference to the visual impact of the finished kitchen. The choice of finish enables you to create a carefully nuanced effect and mood through the use of light, from the softness of matt finish to the mirror-like effect of high gloss.
A Spectrum of Choice
Poggenpohl’s range of seven standard colours has been thoughtfully selected by our design team, to be complementary to the Poggenpohl ranges as well as appealing to the eye. All seven colours are complementary to each other so they can be combined in a complete kitchen or living space in order to achieve a desired effect. However, if the shade a customer has in mind isn’t covered in our range we also offer a bespoke colour matching service, and can make our doors and cabinets in any colour covered in the RAL/NCS colour spectrum.
Bespoke Dimensions
Our base units are available in a variety of heights from 39 cm to 78 cm; wall units in heights from 39 cm to 91 cm; and our tall units can be specified in several heights from 130 cm to 221 cm. As our plinths can also be any height from 8 cm to 26 cm, there’s no space and no location that a Poggenpohl kitchen can’t fit. It’s the same with unit widths – that why there’s no such thing as a ‘standard’ Poggenpohl kitchen, just as there’s no such thing as a standard room. The result is a made-to-measure living space that reflects your individual needs and personality.
