About Us
Liberating the kitchen from the confines of tradition, our systems are modular, sustainable, and exquisitely designed for the ever-changing rhythms of life.
Revolutionising Kitchens for the Modern World
TERMINO is a Berlin-based independent design brand founded in 2022 by Elson Lin and Lily Ho. The idea began with a move — from Taipei to Düsseldorf — and a desire to make kitchens as adaptable as the rest of life.
Born from a background in mobile product design, TERMINO applies precision thinking to modular living. Every system reflects our values: clarity, flexibility, and permanence.
We’re not just building kitchens. We’re rethinking how design can move with people.
Our Vision
Guided by the simplicity of Dieter Rams, we create systems that endure — where function is visible, and beauty is structural. TERMINO exists at the intersection of classic design and modern movement.
With Founder Elson Lin's extensive background in mobile phone product design, we bring a unique perspective, challenging the conventional and redefining kitchen spaces. We envision TERMINO kitchens as hubs of innovation, sustainability, and lasting beauty.
Our Mission
To simplify living through modularity.
TERMINO builds aluminum kitchen systems that are lightweight, durable, and ready for change.

Our Circular Approach Through Design Innovation
Shockingly, according to the European Federation of Furniture Manufacturers, 80-90% of EU furniture waste is sent to landfill sites, with only about 10% being recycled. We are dedicated to changing this narrative through a four-pronged strategy aimed at promoting a circular economy
