Hettich has been selected to provide kitchen fittings and accessories for the popular Sydney Seafood School, with InnoTech soft closing drawers, the Easys electronic drawer opening system, Sensys soft closing hinges, Magic LED lighting, ProDecor European designed handles and other storage solutions being used.

According to Justin North, SMH Good Food Guide Chef of the Year, a well organised kitchen is essential. "Work-flow is essential to a well organised kitchen, so having distinct zones within the space is necessary."

Soft close drawer systems and quality ergonomic internal fittings help to organise the kitchen's space in a way that minimises efforts and maximises enjoyment. Lighting is also an important consideration.

"Lighting plays a key role in the ideal kitchen design," North says. "The best scenario is to make sure you have plenty and that you're not working in your own light. These days, innovative lighting choices are wide and varied and the standard overhead lighting can be enhanced by clever in and under cabinetry and even under bench lighting."

Hettich Australia marketing manager, Henrik Stollmann, says that "beautiful design needs to be supported by quality fittings to ensure the integrity of the end product - that's where Hettich hardware shines."
