Cesaroni Design worked concurrently with the marketing and engineering teams at Wolf Appliance to develop new wall ovens as single and double configurations. Industrial design efforts by Cesaroni Design entailed aesthetic, ergonomic and user interface improvements.

Ideation began with 3D renderings illustrating different door styles, handle options and control panels. Once a design direction for the new product was selected, the project team refined the new design in 3D SolidWorks.

The project team created both Unframed and Framed Door Styles. The handle and control panel lengths are unique to the door style, maximizing the design composition.

Ergonomic improvements include balanced door hinges to ensure a smooth opening and closing. Usable oven capacity is increased for extra-large baking pans. A fully extendable bottom rack nestles on the door rails to safely remove food.

An enhanced user interface design features a touch control panel and LCD display. Electronic responses and directions on the control panel make operation simple.

Wolf Appliance has been ranked #1 by J.D. Power and Associates in the Range/Cooktop/Oven category of their 2010 Home Appliance Study. This satisfaction study is based on ease of use; performance and reliability; styling and feel; features; and warranty.

This appliance design also earned an EID Silver from appliance DESIGN Magazine and a Good Design Award.
