Enter the Gaggenau Kitchen of the Year award: an annual glimpse into the kitchens of our dreams. Every year, this award encourages architects, interior designers, builders, developers and more to submit their finest culinary work to be assessed by a panel of experts. The proceeding shortlist acts as a definitive list of Australia’s most exceptional kitchens and a barometer of the styles, trends and architectural movements that will define interior design over the next period.

From expansive designs in luxury apartments to space-saving entries with innovative ideas, the 2023 cohort are raising the bar for residential kitchen design.
