The future of kitchens is in compact and multi-functional designs, which is exactly what Balin Lee embraces with the ‘Kitchen Tree.’
Inspired by nature, the Kitchen Tree is customizable with the central shaft serving as a refrigerator. Each of the different consoles have the ability to serve as extra refrigerator space, freezers, or standard cupboard spaces.
Each arm (or branch) on the Kitchen Tree is attached to its own ring, allowing the user to move them around freely as they please. The height of each arm is also adjustable, making the pods completely customizable. The top plates of each pod also work as stove tops with a button-touch front door to access the storage areas.
