The Smool Kitchen Tools have been tweaked in a simple way to ensure kitchen counters stay free of clutter, thus keeping the space looking good as much as possible. Essentially, their handles have been embedded with magnets so that they can stick to metal surfaces when not in use. Of all the products showcased by the Dutch design studio, which was founded by designer Robert Bronwasser, found the simple set of Smool Kitchen Tools to be the most appealing.
Comprised of six pieces including a spatula, ladle and tongs, the Smool Kitchen Tools all have white handles and gray heads except for the tongs and wooden spoon. Although the utensils would most likely be secured to a metal strip on walls, they can also become abnormally large fridge magnets.
