From the Netherlands comes designer Johanneke Procee, who has created a compact kitchen cabinet for close-packed city living spaces. Called 'Keukenkabinet' (literally "kitchen cabinet"), this condensed culinary contraption is perfect for bachelor apartments, studios or any space-starved home.
Inspired by one-room houses in slums, the 'Keukenkabinet' by Johanneke Procee is a revolutionary, densely packed all-in-one kitchen that opens up when you need it and disappears when you don't.
Implications - Customers in the modern sphere are feeling the monotony of seeing the same designs repeatedly. Products that push the limits on creativity are appealing to those who want to be challenged by the purchases they make. Companies looking to grow themselves could create their products with unconventional aspects.
