Kitchen spaces in urban homes are quite small, so the 'Vario' is a versatile kitchen appliance that aims to provide as much functionality as possible in a single unit. Utilizing a central base, the 'Vario' can be implemented with different cooking accessories in order to make it the perfect piece of equipment for preparing meals of all kinds.
The 'Vario' appliance incorporates an induction ring for transferring heat to the cooking vessel, while a magnetic ring helps with the rotational design. This allows the 'Vario' to be used to create a number of different meals without ever having to turn on the range.
The conceptual 'Vario' versatile kitchen appliance is the design work of Rik Oudenhoven and is ideal for grilling indoors thanks to the included grill plate.
