BlueStar Introduces New Matte Collection for Bespoke Kitchen Appliances
Blandon, Pa. (PRWEB) October 06, 2016 -- Bluestar®, manufacturer of high-performance appliances for the home – and a trailblazer in color innovation – is unveiling a new Matte collection of eight striking finishes, giving home chefs even more opportunity to unleash their inner designer and create a truly individual, bespoke kitchen design.
BlueStar® appliances are designed to suit the unique cooking styles and design tastes of home chefs and entertaining enthusiasts. The pro-style appliance brand offers unsurpassed performance and virtually unlimited options for personalization, including 750 colors and trims as well as customizable cooking surfaces, swing and French oven doors, and restaurant-inspired accessories such as salamander broilers and Frenchtops.
Providing a contrast to glossy, industrial finishes, this new color collection gives both kitchen designers and homeowners access to the latest trend in home decor—matte hues. Developed as a smooth, velvety finish, the BlueStar® Matte collection lets you leave the shine behind and take appliance color to the edge.
“Like cars, high-end appliances are about power, performance and design. Matte and satin finishes are standard options on luxury cars, and now this elegant look is available on BlueStar appliances,” said Eliza Sheffield, president, BlueStar®.
With inspiration from Heidi Piron, founder of Heidi Piron Designs in Chatham New Jersey and the grand prize winner in BlueStar’s first annual Kitchen Design Competition, BlueStar® developed a well-balanced collection of eight hues that includes bold standouts like Matte Red and classic, on-trend neutrals like Matte Grey.
“A really good mix of layers and contrast makes a kitchen special. I like a combination of matte and glossy, dark and light and smooth and textured,” said award-winning designer Heidi Piron. “The matte option allows design freedom to create a more interesting look. I don’t believe that matte is a ‘trend’ that will ever go away, and it is ideal look for appliances that is both understated yet design-forward.”
