The fairly dangerous but quirky concept 'Buurbeque' by Natwerk is a social and unexpected way by which neighborhoods can come together.
Essentially a grill connected and held up by two (hopefully) sturdy ladders, this fusion of climber and barbeque is a hilarious creation, and a joy to look at. Though not likely to ever be in production, this elevated griller is undeniably innovative, and has potential to spark some inspiration in product designers. The cooker, which also goes by the name 'NeighBourQ,' is making the rounds on the Internet and is more than likely to fool a few readers into think it's being manufactured and sold.
Eye-catching, alarming but with very good intentions, this concept may be a glimpse into the future of social cooking design.
