business at Samsung Electronics. "At KBIS, we are showing

DACOR'S PREMIUM WINE CULTURE AND THE
INNOVATIVE DESIGN OF THE "HIDDEN KITCHEN"
At the exhibition, a dedicated wall showcased Dacor's refined
offerings, developed with wine aficionados in mind. On display
are the 24-Inch Undercounter Wine Cellar and Wine Column.
Dacor also introduced sleek and organized kitchen designs
that seamlessly blend into the overall ambiance of the home when
not in use. These designs emphasize the idea of a "hidden
kitchen" concealed within curved columns or furniture and
encompassing a complete lineup – a refrigerator, cooktop and the
2025 LUXE RED Design Award-winning 24-Inch Dishwasher –
ensuring both practicality and functionality.
Dacor's premium appliances also support SmartThings
connectivity, enabling users to manage key functions through
their connected ecosystem.
