After an impressive transformation to showcase fresh product, the team at the 7 Haus showroom in Manhattan’s A&D Building was ready to party. So in the final hours of January 2024, they welcomed designers, industry insiders, and other special guests to a dramatically refreshed 7 Haus showroom. Visitors sipped wine and bubbly as they entered—wandering through impressive installations of the new nolteneo line from Nolte Küchen. A live DJ was spinning as they made their way past an expansive wall of sample finishes. And in the rear of the showroom, guests savored felafel while admiring further vignettes from the noteworthy new line. The crowd’s excited buzz was a perfect match for how enthusiastic 7 Haus founder Chen I. Tal and his diverse, talented team are about this product.
What’s So Special about nolteneo by Nolte Küchen?
Chen I. Tal has been an architect and designer since 1986. So he had seen plenty of product by the time he and his wife founded 7 Haus in February of 2016. They decided to partner with Nolte Küchen and set about creating dream kitchens with a German aesthetic for their clients. And 7 Haus thrived, developing a reputation for excellence from their inspiring ensign presentations to white glove deliveries and expert installations.
“Our nolteneo line holds a special place as one of my favorites,” says Tal. “It distinguishes itself by its meticulous attention to detail.” Nolteneo offers maximum creative freedom for designers and homeowners. For variety, it’s compatible with the rest of the celebrated Nolte Küchen offerings. However, in addition, nolteneo is built around a thoughtful drawer and pull-out system called neoBOX. The units have a narrow side frame for a sleeker profile (though additional cladding may be added for a more substantial look).
You can consider giving your kitchen pieces a floating effect with an aluminum plinth frame or an eye-catching shadow gap around drawers. Swap in neoGRID or neoMIRROR for classic glass to individualize display units. Add interior LED lighting to better visualize the exclusive system of drawers, trays and pull-outs. Choose from a variety of perfectly matched handles or go handleless with MatrixArt One, which uses a combination of recessed pulls and the MatrixZero push-to-open system for smooth interface. And dress your kitchen with fronts in genuine lacquer, wood, neoSTONE veneer, or melamine resin in shades from the colorful to the restrained. In short, the nolteneo offers plenty of reasons to raise a glass.
A Word from Our 7 Haus Founder
At the height of the festivities, Tal summoned the room’s attention by whistling powerfully. He hailed their august growth since beginning in a garage with “no heat, no AC, no nothing.” He also noted that 7 Haus has goals above and beyond helping people create dream kitchens. These include being a company that is for women and for immigrants. As he called up members of the exquisitely attired team that made the launch possible, you could see proof of these twin missions. The team is mostly women and hails from as far afield as the Caribbean, Ukraine, Colombia, Belarus, Mexico, Brazil and beyond.
Tal says that he is still happy to help people create dream kitchens because kitchens are where we strengthen the ties of family and friendship. And he notes that he is also proud that his clients can “be sure and secure when you use our product: you will get that quality and meet that deadline.”
