LG built-in appliances were prominently featured as LG Electronics presented a comprehensive portfolio of built-in kitchen solutions from its SKS luxury brand and LG built-in lineup at Milan Design Week 2026, held April 20-26 at the SKS Milan Showroom. The exhibition highlighted the integration of technology and design in European premium kitchen markets.
First Anniversary of SKS Rebranding
The showcase marked the first anniversary of SKS’s rebranding effort. The luxury brand offers modern style and technological solutions tailored to the European premium built-in market. SKS collaborated with Schiffini, an Italian high-end kitchen furniture manufacturer, to present an integrated approach to kitchen space design. The display featured the latest SKS solutions alongside LG’s high-end built-in appliance lineup.
Immersive Culinary Experience Program
The newly renovated SKS Milan Showroom hosted “Feeding the Future,” an AI-assisted experiential journey guiding visitors through different stages of the food lifecycle. The program explored storage optimization, ingredient preparation, and usage practices supported by SKS and LG technologies. The experience concluded with an anti-waste tasting session.
During Milan Design Week, the showroom hosted an invitation-only event for the local “Life Genius” LG fan community. A sommelier-led program paired beverages with each showroom space, emphasizing the sophisticated features of LG’s built-in technologies. A Michelin-starred chef prepared the closing dinner, demonstrating how SKS and LG appliances support premium cuisine preparation.
The Tracce Capsule Collection Launch
LG unveiled the “Tracce” capsule collection, developed with Abet Laminati, an Italian decorative laminate company. The collection comprises the SKS Undercounter cellar and the SKS Undercounter convertible refrigerator, featuring historical graphic patterns from Italian architecture and design figures Alessandro Mendini, Ettore Sottsass, and Superstudio.
“Milan Design Week 2026 presents the perfect opportunity to clearly articulate our luxury built-in philosophy to the world. Leveraging a deep understanding of European living and culture, we will continue to strengthen our leadership in the European market with appliances combining refined design and advanced technologies.”
