Gorenje, the Slovenian manufacturer famed for its creative and inspiring appliances, played an integral role in the Silent Revolutions exhibition, part of the Tent London design festival.
Unveiled at an exclusive VIP preview on Thursday 22nd September, Gorenje appliances were a key attraction at the Silent Revolutions exhibition, the first time Slovenian contemporary design has been celebrated on such an international scale.
The preview was attended by important figures from the Slovenian embassy, the design industry and the press. It was opened by His Excellency Mr Iztok Jarc, Ambassador of the Republic of Slovenia, who praised the brands that were taking part and acknowledged the influence they have had on the design industry and other products worldwide.
Appliances from the Gorenje Simplicity range were on display at the Silent Revolutions exhibition until Sunday 25th September, demonstrating that kitchen products need not just perform a function, but can also feature exciting and aspirational design. The Gorenje exhibit included a Simplicity induction hob, built-in single oven and washing machine, all featuring the iconic single control knob with a beautiful white appearance.
Ruth Ferguson, Marketing Manager for Gorenje says: “The Silent Revolutions exhibition was a superb opportunity to demonstrate to the world the quality and creativity offered by Slovenian design, and so it was incredibly important that Gorenje took part to acknowledge the role appliances play. Products must be practical and pleasing to the eye, and this is an idea that is carried throughout Gorenje’s portfolio.”
