Otto's son Georg von Blanquet took over at the helm of Gaggenau from 1956. Inspired by a passion for cooking, he had a vision of a custom-designed fitted kitchen with technically sophisticated and easy to use appliances. He relentlessly pursued his vision despite all the difficulties. Georg von Blanquet took advantage of the booming culinary culture at the time and the new esteem in which kitchen appliances were held in the post-war era.
