Olimpia Splendid at Archiproducts Milano to present the new air conditioners of the Unico* range
At Archiproducts Milano, Home of Comfort is centre-stage, the home with the perfect air conditioning: Olimpia Splendid. The new air conditioners of the Brescia-based company fit into rooms 5 and 6 of the building in Via Tortona 31 and interacted with the interior design project by the Marcante Testa studio.
There are two protagonists of the Olimpia Splendid press day at Archiproducts Milano: Air – recess-mounted – and Pro, signed by Matteo Thun & Antonio Rodriguez. The two air conditioners, part of the Unico* range, were discreetly integrated into the smart home concept designed by the Turin studio, contributing to a domestic scenario with air conditioning as a fundamental component.
“The goal we worked on was to create an essential product. So we worked on the shape of the air conditioner, experimenting with solutions that streamlined the product and, at the same time, made it original” – explains Antonio Rodriguez. “The concept is based, therefore, on a work of subtraction, of “purifying the forms”, aimed at making UNICO Pro a discreet presence that can work in any context, in line with trends followed in the high-tech objects sector.”
“We have chosen to develop the new range together with Matteo Thun and Antonio Rodriguez for their ability to interpret forms and transform objects into icons” – continues Marco Saccone of Olimpia Splendid – “What we present is the result of over two years of research and development that have made it possible to create a product that combines high-level engineering performance with an unequalled design”.
Both the 14 HP and 12 HP A+ versions of UNICO® Pro are the absolute top-of-the-range in terms of air conditioners without external units for cooling power and energy efficiency, thanks to significant engineering innovations.
The Pro Power system makes UNICO® Pro high-performing, allowing the achievement of a cooling power up to 3.5 kW in the 14 HP version. The Inverter Technology Pro contributes to the achievement of the A+ energy class in the 12 HP A + version, the most efficient in the range.
Both models also adopt the Silent Mode function, which sets the machine to minimum noise to ensure maximum acoustic comfort, thanks to the use of cutting-edge sound-absorbing materials for the casing of the machine body.
The power and efficiency that characterise the UNICO® Pro range are easy to manage, thanks to the new full digital remote control and the backlit display with touch controls available on the machine. Furthermore, UNICO® Pro is compatible with the UNICO Wi-Fi Kit that allows, by means of the installation of a USB key, to connect the air conditioner to the home network and even to manage it remotely via your smartphone.
Together with Air and Pro, were presented Limpia and Astomi, the humidifier and the essential oil diffuser with chromotherapy.
Always careful to combine know-how and design, the Brescia-based company designs, produces and markets products for indoor comfort with high aesthetic and technological performances. “For over 60 years we have been developing projects that can integrate into any environment thanks to a perfect combination of design, performance and functionality. That’s why our Made in Italy products are internationally recognised and have won awards” – says engineer Roberto Saccone, President of Olimpia Splendid.
In fact, the company boasts over 10 international awards. Among the most recent, the Good Design Award 2017 won by Bi2® Wall, the fan coil unit with a reversible installation, the Good Design Award 2016 for Unico®Air, for the slimmest air conditioner with no external unit, the Red Dot Design Award obtained in 2015 for MIA®, the first modular and customisable pellet stove and the IF Product Design Award won in 2013 with Bi2® Plus, the cooler-radiator that blends into the colours of each environment like a chameleon.
