The Outdoor Kitchen

Posted: 24 Apr 2012 06:18 AM PDT

N1 Kitchen System is intended for the outdoors but can be fitted into a compact home. The whole unit just shuts-shop and fits into a storage container for easy transportation. The kitchen features the three basic elements – the sink and prep area, the storage unit and the stove system; keeping it really simple and bare.

Features:

  • Designed within the kitchen’s prep area is a self-proportioning cutting board that visually divides the board's surface, up to 6 times, and weighs each division for equal portions.
  • Inspired by x-rays, the storage system uses smart glass to visually reveal food quantities.
  • As food is consumed the surface’s opacity changes.
  • The stove system gets rid of knobs that may break in the outdoors and uses the turning of the stove’s pot to change the temperature.
  • As the pot turns and aligns with the different stove’s burners, it changes the temperature from boiling water to low, medium and high.
  • The stove’s burner has a groove, which the pot turns in to avoid being knocked around in the outdoors and to maintain efficiency.

Designers: Kyle Thacker, Sarah Fung, Maxine Kim, Paul Methot, Xavier Yee & Jesse Kim

Parisian Perfection

Posted: 24 Apr 2012 12:01 AM PDT

The latest collection of lighting by Ozone has all the refinement you’d expect from the Parisian design team. The designs vary greatly from one piece to the next but they all exhibit a reduced yet sophisticated aesthetic that fits perfectly in minimal environments and classic settings alike. Each is sure to be a focal point of any room it’s in.

Marina Living Done Right

Posted: 24 Apr 2012 12:01 AM PDT

Not so much a yacht as it is a floating home, the Rieul-Useful provides luxurious accommodations from the comfort of the marina. The second floor consists of two bedrooms, an entertainment lounge and complete kitchen but the really special part is what’s underneath- the S-shaped design features a private dock on the first floor with space for a single hull yacht up to 15m long, giving yacht owners access to their own private amenities versus sharing facilities with a large yacht community.

Designer: Hyun-Seok Kim
