Which Region’s Range Matches Your Design Aesthetic?

by

Each region of the United States showcases a different landscape, climate, cuisine and culture. Similarly, when it comes to interior design styles, the variations are equally as striking! With an array of design aesthetics across the country, you are not limited to adhering solely to the predominant style in your local area. Whether you are drawn to the coastal allure of southern California’s beaches or the thriving cityscape of New York City, there is sure to be a regional design style that perfectly complements your personal aesthetic.

EuroChef is proud to offer a comprehensive collection of ranges and cooktops, from two prestigious Italian brands. Lofra and Verona offer high quality craftsmanship, elegant design and multi-functional appliances, available in an assortment of sizes, models, and colors. Read below to discover the range that best matches your design aesthetic from these exceptional Italian brands!

Pacific Northwest

Surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of nature, Pacific Northwestern style draws a majority of its inspiration from the outdoors, creating warm and welcoming spaces. Most design elements, including furniture, finishes and other choices remain faithful to the integration of nature indoors, with organic shapes and natural finishes dominating. Lofra’s Maestro Collection in Stainless Steel is a popular choice, perfectly complementing the prevalent warm wood tones often found in kitchens across this region.

Southern California

Interior design in southern California emulates the lifestyle embraced within the region. With a mindset rooted in effortless living, it’s not a surprise that a minimalist aesthetic is most loved by residents in this region. Many of the finishes and design elements in southern California are characterized by clean lines and sleek silhouettes, exuding modern sophistication. Lofra’s Dolcevita in Stainless Steel with Brass trim exemplifies this level of refinement, making it one of the most popular choices in this region. Many southern Californians also love the timeless and  mysterious allure of Verona’s black induction ranges, making them another fan favorite.

New England

In New England, interior styling aims to achieve a look of easy elegance. While the color scheme choices often evoke a nautical theme, New England design embraces the inclusion of striking statement pieces. This style often incorporates antiques, refined details and vibrant finishes. Given this region’s love for bold statements, it’s no surprise Lofra’s Dolcevita in Lavender with Brass trim and Verona’s Designer Dual Fuel in Burgundy are highly favored. Both ranges, adorned in unique colors, are captivating focal points in kitchens, adding an exquisite touch of elegance.

Mid-Atlantic

This region values high-quality appliances that not only perform exceptionally but also possess a stylish allure. Homeowners and designers swoon over the timeless design and multifunctional features of Lofra’s Dolcevita in Matte Black with Brass trim as it embodies the desired balance of style and functionality cherished in Mid-Atlantic kitchens.

DC Metro

In DC Metro style, you can expect to see a plethora of rich, luxurious and chic materials such as leather chairs and glass coffee tables, adorning living spaces. Interior styling choices in this area are characterized by modern luxury. The modern and distinctive charm of the Curva Collection is a favorite from Lofra by the residents of this region. In this bustling metropolitan area, many also have limited space, so a clutter-free and chic aesthetic is highly valued. From Verona, their built-in products, including cooktops and wall ovens, are favorites.

South

Interior design in the south is combination of style and comfort, exemplifying the region’s iconic charm. You can expect to find interiors that beam with light, radiance and that distinctive southern charm! From paint choices to cabinetry color and even the color of appliances, white emerges as the preferred choice in the south. The effortless blending of contemporary trends and timeless design makes Lofra’s white Dolcevita with Brass trim reign supreme in the south. From Verona, the Electric Prestige and Designer Ranges in white are the most popular, further emphasizing the region’s infatuation for this milky hue. In the Southern Florida region, you’ll find the electric double ovens in white are the range of choice.

New York Metro

With living space being at a minimum in small apartments or condos in New York Metro style, the key focus is optimizing every inch of the limited area. Even with the constraints of a compact space, there is no need to compromise on your style preferences. New York Metro style exceeds in designing environments that exude a modern and luxurious aura. Ideal for achieving a contemporary look in a confined kitchen, many opt for Verona’s 24” and 30” Gas Ranges in Stainless Steel. If gas isn’t an option for some kitchens, the Lofra 30” Induction range is also a great choice. These ranges elevate the overall aesthetic of even the smallest of kitchens.

A Matte Black Range Sets the Mood for this South Florida Kitchen

by

Verona Appliances partnered with Haley Jones of Me and Mr. Jones to craft a moody black kitchen for her South Florida home. To her surprise, Haley didn’t realize that so many homes in the Florida area didn’t have gas hookups available, but she found a great alternative with an electric range from Verona.

“I wanted a gas range look and stumbled across the Verona Designer Series Range,” she says. “This was the first appliance we picked out after weeks of searching for a range that would fit the aesthetic of our modern kitchen.”

Continue to read below for more details on Haley’s experience with her Verona range.

The Brand

Haley and her husband wanted a range in matte black with sleek and modern lines. The model they went with is the 36” Designer Series Electric Range. “The size is great and fits our space perfectly,” she says. “The home originally had a 30” range, but we wanted something a little bit larger to anchor the space and we love how substantial it looks!” Haley also liked how there were several Verona retailers near her, so she felt comfortable choosing the brand in case a repair was needed in the future. 

Note: If you’re interested in a Verona appliance or need repair assistance, you can use our store locator to find a licensed retailer near you.

The Design

According to Haley, the overall design of the range is what drew her and her husband in immediately. “It’s so sleek, simple and modern, which is exactly what we wanted for our kitchen remodel,” she says. “We opted for the single door instead of the double-door because I wanted the option to cook sheet pan meals on a large baking sheet.”

Another design feature she appreciated was the feet. “I know that’s oddly specific, but it’s one design feature that I love,” she says. The range in her previous home in California was lower to the ground, so it was more difficult to get under the appliance to recover lost baby and dog toys. The feet on the Designer Series Electric Range raises the appliance higher, therefore, it’s easier for her to sweep, mop and recover toys from underneath.

The Cleaning

Haley also mentioned how simple her appliance was to maintain. “The cooktop is incredibly easy to keep clean in comparison to other electric ranges that we’ve owned,” says Haley. “In addition, the soft-close oven door actually can come off completely! It’s one of my favorite things about this appliance.”

Note: Instructions for how to remove the door on this model is found on page 22 of the user manual. Cleaning and maintenance instructions start in page 17.

The Functions

The electric cooktop on the 36” Designer Series range has five burners. “I typically only use two at one time, but I love the larger burner in the center of the stove,” says Haley. “All the burners heat up quickly and cook evenly.”

As for the oven cavity, Haley says she typically cooks with the normal convection function, which cooks evenly as well. A fan and multiple heating elements help cook anything, from a roast chicken to a batch of brownies, with ease since it encourages even heating.

Review Summary

Overall, Haley says she and her husband absolutely love their electric range. “The size, the design, and the functionality of it are all really great. The design alone makes it worth the money in my opinion!” She also appreciates how she can customize her range with different colored knobs. “We have a Matte Black set that I plan on installing, but these knobs are also available in Burgundy.”

Why Choose Electric Cooking?

Verona Appliances Stays Ahead of the Curve with Stylish Single and Double Oven Electric Ranges

36″ Designer Electric Range in Matte Black

Electric ranges and cooktops are increasing in popularity among homeowners and designers. Why? According to a growing body of research, gas appliances, which long reigned as the supreme cooking method and hailed by professional and home chefs alike, are proving to be harmful to the environment – and us.

Research shows that living with a gas appliance has led to increased risks of asthma and other illnesses – especially in children – due to harmful air pollutants like nitrogen dioxide and methane. And it’s not only while the appliance is boiling a pot of water for a pasta dinner. In fact, more than three-quarters of emissions occur while the appliance is not in use.

In addition, those same pollutants are harmful to the environment. Yearly emissions from U.S. gas cooktops are equivalent to the emissions transmitted from half a million cars. Overall, homes and buildings are directly responsible for about 13 percent of the country’s annual greenhouse gas emissions, mostly from the natural gas burned by furnaces, water heaters, clothes dryers, and gas-powered stoves and ovens.

Gas appliances may become a thing of the past. Some cities are banning new gas hookups for appliances to reduce air pollution and emissions to help in fighting climate change. “Electric cooking will become more of a player in the market as cities and states across the country start to eliminate the possibility of gas appliance installations,” states Melissa Haber, Vice President of EuroChef USA, the exclusive importer of the Verona brand.

A ban on gas appliances has already happened in New York City, where new buildings under seven stories cannot have gas hookups starting in 2023. The ban on taller buildings will go into effect in 2027. In fact, the State of New York is considering a version of this ban in 2027, as well. The San Francisco Bay Area has already had a similar ban in place for the past year.  

“We noticed our electric appliances have been increasing in sales,” says Haber. To keep up with changing market demand, Verona released a stylish electric range model with single and double oven options to suit varying tastes. “Our new Prestige 36-inch electric ranges offer the highly sought-after pro look without compromising on performance,” says Haber. “There are very few electric options in the market that are both feature- and style-rich at this price point, so we’re sure our new collection will spark a lot of interest.”

Electric appliances are safe, easy to clean and will make any kitchen renovation easier ­– which is a welcome relief considering supply chain issues and labor shortages are still impacting the kitchen and bath industry today.

Easy to Clean

For Anastasia Casey of the Identité Collective, who’s used to cooking with gas, an electric cooktop was a learning curve. However, her opinion on this cooking method was transformed.  “For starters, it’s shockingly easy to keep clean,” she says, as the cooktop surface is entirely flat. “Without all the metal grates to fuss over, I can just let it cool and wipe up any spills or splatters.”

Appliance owners can effortlessly clean an electric cooktop with a damp dish rag and soap. For caked on messes, a little warm vinegar can go a long way.                             

Safe

While an electric appliance doesn’t completely eliminate the risk of burns or fires, it does lower the risk because there’s no open flame. For extra safety features, the appliance often comes with “power on” lights and residual heat warnings to inform appliance owners when the surface is still hot to the touch.

Induction is also a form of electric cooking that is often purchased with safety in mind. With the Verona Designer Induction Range’s electric magnetic coils, the surface does not retain or give off heat since only the pot is directly heated.

Less Fuss with Renovating

Home renovations have increased dramatically in the past few years, and it’s a shift that will continue to increase in the years to come. But with supply chain issues and labor shortages still impacting the industry, renovating any room in the home, such as a kitchen, can be a headache for all parties involved.

If a homeowner doesn’t have a gas line already set up, installing a hookup can be a costly and time-consuming process filled with inspections and installation appointments. But with an electric appliance, the installation process is easier and less expensive. “Once things were in place, we simply plugged things in and put them straight to use—electric appliances for the win,” says Anastasia Casey.

Solutions for Gas Cooking

Not everyone is able to, or has the means, to replace their gas appliances with electric. So, what to do if the switch can’t be made? Invest in a range hood, which can cut the appliance’s air pollution in about half. Range hoods are critical components for every kitchen, as they work to pull the air into filters or a duct to remove odors, grease, moisture, smoke, and harmful particles (such as greenhouse gasses) during cooking.

Going electric is the way of the future. Choosing an electric appliance will not only help the environment, but will improve air quality in the home and make life easier and safer.

About Verona: Verona Appliances’ stylish line of ranges, ovens, cooktops, ventilation, dishwashers and refrigeration have been featured in upscale kitchens around the world since 1958. Designed and manufactured in the suburbs of Venice, Italy, each Verona cooking appliance is held to the highest standards of quality and is made to U.S. market specifications. Verona’s new 36” electric double oven ranges are an industry exclusive, with an upgraded look that is only surpassed by its high-powered capabilities. EuroChef USA is proud to present the Verona line of appliances through an authorized network of U.S. distributors and retailers, suitable for any sized kitchen.

A Modern, High Contrast Lake House Kitchen with The Identité Collective

by

Verona Appliances recently partnered with Anastasia Casey of the Identité Collective to create a modern, high contrast kitchen for her off-the-beaten-path lake house in east Texas. “As I considered the mealtime logistics of our trips to the lake, I knew we’d be putting the kitchen appliances to good use,” says Anastasia. “But here’s the catch: our lake house [didn’t] have gas, so we needed to find electric appliances that fit our modern tastes.”

Continue to read below for more details on Anastasia’s kitchen renovation and why she loves cooking with electric!

A Trendy, Matte Black Electric Range

Anastasia knew that Verona Appliances had a reputation for quality, but the matte black finish is what sealed the deal. “Finding a beautiful electric range was priority number one,” she says. “I wasn’t willing to compromise aesthetics, so after days and days of research, I was ecstatic to find this matte black option from Verona.” For Anastasia, the 36” Designer Electric Range in Matte Black reminded her of the cooking appliance she had at her primary residence. Even better, it perfectly matched the paint color (Tricorn Black SW 6258 by Sherwin-Williams) on her cabinetry for a seamless, moody look – which is something nicely unexpected in a lake house!

For Anastasia, who’s used to cooking with gas, an electric stovetop was a learning curve. However, her opinion on this cooking method was transformed.  “For starters, it’s shockingly easy to keep clean,” she says. “Without all the metal grates to fuss over, I can just let it cool and wipe up any spills or splatters.”

Seeking Balance with a Low Profile Range Hood

When the cabinetry and range colors were finalized, Anastasia had second thoughts about her plans for a range hood. “I felt like we needed some black up top to balance the space,” she says. She decided on the 36” Low Profile Range Hood  that could be mounted under a custom-built header with shiplap trim and then painted the same black shade as the rest of the kitchen cabinetry.

A Large, French Door Refrigerator Built for Families on the Go

If you’re on vacation at a lake house, you’re likely spending most of your precious hours in the great outdoors or on the go. Anastasia can agree. “We’re constantly coming and going from the lake house,” she says. A large, 36” French Door Refrigerator with clear interior storage bins can easily show you what’s stocked, what needs to be tossed and what can be stowed away in the freezer to avoid food waste. “I love that the doors each have deep compartments, plus it came with a standard freeze drawer AND deep freeze drawer option,” says Anastasia. The counter-depth fridge from Verona was given a built-in look by reusing and refinishing the existing upper cabinet box, adding a faux side panel of pine plywood and trimming everything in to tie it all together.

Dishwashers as a Necessity

No one wants to do dishes while on vacation. That’s why dishwashers can be the true workhorses of any vacation home. To round out the kitchen, Anastasia added a brand-new 24” Tall Tub Built-in Dishwasher to the lake house. “With clean lines and a stainless finish, it feels very top-of-the-line, and there’s also a handy light that turns on whenever it’s open,” she says.

Overall, the kitchen renovation was a breeze and Anastasia is thrilled with the results. “Once things were in place, we simply plugged things in and put them straight to use—electric appliances for the win.”

New Decade, New Designs! 6 Design Trends to Include in Your Kitchen in 2020

by

A new year signals new beginnings, and we can’t think of a better way to celebrate the new decade than with an update to the most popular room in the house. Whether you are downsizing, remodeling, or building a new home, Verona Appliances shares six design trends you’ll definitely want to include in your kitchen in 2020!

Sleek Interiors

Designers and homeowners alike are opting for a more seamless look in the kitchen. Built-in ovens like Verona Appliances’ 110V Electric Wall Oven & 24-inch Gas Wall Oven options are perfect for minimalist designed kitchens where space is limited. This contemporary aesthetic provides more countertop space while offering clean sightlines in an open concept design.

High-Contrast Designs

White kitchens have been a popular design trend for the past few years. In 2020 we will see a shift towards a more dramatic interior that will bring personality to these neutral spaces. One way to do this is by adding contrast to your space in the form of different colors, textures and materials. Contrast invites a hierarchy in design and draws attention to different focal points creating a more visually appealing space.

Hints of Color 

One way to infuse color and visual interest to your kitchen is through bold appliances. Homeowners are now mixing and matching colorful ranges, refrigerators, microwaves and hoods to reflect their personal style. Verona Appliances offers unique color options for their Designer Series in a variety of on-trend colors including the all- new Gloss Black and Slate Gray body colors as well as the new Burgundy and Black knob options. Verona also takes the design process one step further and allows homeowners to customize their own Designer Range.

Green Alternatives

Sustainability and wellness are at the forefront of everyone’s mind in 2020. Designers and homeowners are becoming more environmentally conscious about the materials and products they include in their designs. Verona Appliances offers plenty of solutions that lend to a clean, green kitchen.

Verona’s range cavities are built with an easy –to- clean enamel, which allows chemical-free cleaning. The interior of all ranges can be cleaned with a water, lemon, and/or vinegar solution, while the glass in the oven doors can easily be removed and wiped down with soap and water in the sink.

Verona also offers two 36” range hood options that reduce the natural carbon monoxide run-off created by gas cooktop burners while being used.

Kitchens Built for Entertaining

At their very core, kitchens are the heart of every home and are great spaces for hosting and entertaining. Hosts know that the kitchen is like a magnet for guests and modern, open designs encourage this. Large double-oven ranges like the one offered in the Verona Prestige Series & N Series allow hosts to accommodate their guests’ wide range of tastes and cook several dishes at once.

Large Islands

Islands have become the hub of kitchens, providing space for Sunday brunches, morning pancakes, and packing lunches for the family. According to the 2020 Houzz Kitchen Trend Study survey, one-third of the 2,600 homeowners that were surveyed, added an island during a 2019 renovation, while nearly a quarter upgraded an existing island. Homeowners are expected to expand on the island trend of the past decade by adding larger islands or even an additional island to accommodate additional storage and appliances and create more work stations while maintaining a clean look.
