The kitchen is no longer a fixed place. It adapts, responds and learns. With ‘Designed to Move with You’, Miele presents a vision of the kitchen as a space that moves with its users – shaped by changing routines, limited space and intuitive technology. At Milan Design Week 2026, the concept comes to life at EuroCucina and in the newly redesigned Miele Experience Center in Milan’s Brera Design District.
Cooking, talking, gathering: Today, the kitchen is part of the living space. The demands placed on the range hood are correspondingly high – it should be powerful, yet unobtrusive at the same time. At EuroCucina 2026, Miele is showcasing two new solutions that meet precisely these requirements: a cooktop with an integrated range hood in a compact 60-cm format, as well as a new built-in range hood with a glass panel.
Living space is becoming increasingly limited. Cities are growing, floor plans are shrinking – and with them the traditional functions of the kitchen, dining room and home office. With its “Miele Compact Living: Kitchen Unit powered by Hettich” concept, Miele demonstrates how this trend can be not only accommodated but also reimagined: as a multifunctional kitchen furniture system designed for minimal space. The concept will be presented for the first time at the Miele Experience Centre in Milan during Milan Design Week from 21 to 26 April 2026.
At EuroCucina in Milan, Miele is introducing a new artificial intelligence-based cooking assistant called CulinaryCoach*. This feature in the Miele App* helps users find the right settings for their dish more quickly and transfer programmes directly to connected ovens. The CulinaryCoach* will be available in Germany and Austria from the second quarter of 2026.
From cooking with children to elegant dinners with guests: the new generation of Miele induction hobs is revolutionizing the home cooking experience.

Whether it’s a big weekly shop, structured food storage, or special occasions: a large refrigerator makes everyday organization easier. Miele is responding to this need with three new cooling solutions that stand out for their generous capacities, innovative freshness systems, and stylish design. With the new XXL built-in combinations, elegant French Door units, and the enhanced MasterCool series, the premium manufacturer offers modern solutions for various kitchen concepts.
Whether fresh ingredients for a cooking evening or cool drinks for guests: The new under-counter refrigerator KU 7175 D from Miele brings flexibility and comfort to the kitchen. Two spacious drawers with individually adjustable temperature zones ensure clear storage directly next to the stove. The compact and versatile cooling option is ideal as a cellar compartment, beverage cooler, or supplement to the main refrigerator.
Miele presents its innovative 14 cm-high steam drawer at EuroCucina 2026. It opens up additional possibilities for cooking with maximum flexibility in kitchen planning – from smaller urban spaces to larger open-plan kitchens. In combination with a 45 cm high oven with microwave, this creates a 3in1 solution for the 60 cm built-in niche that combines baking, reheating and steam cooking in one niche – while enabling simultaneous cooking in two separate cavities. Miele is thus responding to the growing demand for healthy, versatile cooking methods in the kitchen. Whether vegetables or potatoes, sous-vide cooked dishes or the reheating of small portions – the steam drawer offers versatility for a wide range of uses and is ideal for menus for up to four people.

Whether it's going for a walk with the dog, a workout in nature, or an afternoon at the playground – everyday life leaves its mark on our shoes. Cleaning shoes by hand afterwards is often time-consuming and ineffective – and also frequently leads to dirt in the living area. It's easier to do this in the washing machine – provided the shoes are perfectly protected. This is where SneakerWash from Miele comes in: the innovative system, consisting of a washing bag (SneakerWash Bag) and detergent tab (SneakerTab), enables simple, effective, and gentle cleaning of sports shoes and sneakers.
