designer's own words:
When we think about the future we think about automatization, about making life easier, faster and effortless. The reality is that as much as we like to dream about everyday tasks being done by them selves, spending some time at home doing them is an important part of our lives.
Family’s quality time must be improved, and a great way to do so is by bringing together cooking and dinning. This way, there will be no need to have fast made or take out food. Cooking will be an inclusive activity that will take place when family is together and having a good time.
Apart from the social perspective of the project the technology used in this product doubles the energy efficiency of common gas or electric stoves. The cook top, which sits under the table, is an extremely safe and easy appliance. The technology used is based on independent hexagonal coils that work with high-frequency electromagnetism. They will only heat ferrous metal vessels and the only heat in this cook top is generated directly in the vessel so when it’s taken from the table or turn off the only residual heat is in the cookware itself.
In conclusion, this product both helps to reduce by half the energy used when cooking and offers a new way to interact with food. It makes cooking more of a social or family event than a shore. Nowadays lifestyle brings families apart and this product gives us an excuse to get together and interact face to face on a regular basis.
