KITCHEN DESIGN COMPETITION 2010
Trinity: Water, Energy and Air
Today there is an extreme emphasis on the necessity to give back to our planet. We now need to take this idea to another level and place this emphasis on how we supplement our own bodies.
Our kitchen has been designed to enrich its occupants with a new understanding of how to embrace a more natural healthy diet by incorporating the environment in the space as a visual enrichment of our bodies as well. The pure white cabinets symbolize water- the most essential element for our bodies and our planet to thrive. The central island serves as a unique focal point that represents the energy our planet offers to us in the form of food.
The open simplicity of the design as well as the feeling of serenity emitted within the space represents the unseen and often underrated importance of air to our planet and our lives. The three together provide a meditative atmosphere, pure and inviting that allows the kitchen to be transformed into a centralized multifunctional heart of the home. The Electrolux appliances fit into our kitchen perfectly; from their simple design ascetic to their philosophy of respecting the environment with efficient use of energy and water consumption while embracing and preserving the health and flavor of the food prepared within them.
The smooth energy-efficient design of the appliances; the simplistic design of the room; and the pureness of the food that enriches your body all come together to entitle you to a new, higher standard of what the experience of a meal should be. The pureness you see visually within this space corresponds directly with the pureness of the food, water, and air our bodies and our planet consume.
