Falmec's Alba ceiling hood has been recognised with the prestigious Interior Design's Best of Year 2024 award, marking a significant achievement in the design world. Organised by the influential US magazine Interior Design, this international award celebrates the most outstanding projects and products of the past year, judged according to their aesthetics, functionality, and sustainability. Now in its nineteenth year, the Best of Year awards represent a true mark of excellence, showcasing contemporary creativity across various design and architecture categories.
The Alba, designed by Saggia & Sommella, stood out in the Kitchen Appliance category for its minimalist design and exceptional performance. Its understated elegance is defined by a clever geometric balance, with a technological 'heart' integrated into the false ceiling. An elegant protruding frame in tempered glass provides the only visible element, creating a well-defined, transparent line. The frame is enhanced by an LED system, which ensures pleasant lighting and optimal illumination of the hob area.
The Alba also features a perimeter suction system that offers great versatility and discretion. The white panel can be tinted to match the ceiling colour, ensuring aesthetic continuity with the surrounding space. This thoughtful design detail enhances the overall integration of the ceiling hood with the room, maintaining a seamless and harmonious look.
