For the correct realisation of your proposals, keep into consideration the following guidelines:
Style: submit original solutions and tell us your story, through a design which might represent you. Explore new shapes, colours or geometries that might define a new user experience. Be inspired by what surrounds you, by what you love, and follow your imagination to create your dream hood.
Functionalities: study innovative and smart solutions, elaborate ideas and unprecedented functionalities for the range hood world.
User experience: to better develop your concepts, focus on the person, thinking about his/her user experience, his/her needs and the environment where he/she lives and cooks today as well as tomorrow.
