Smart kitchen design by Faltazi

from: http://www.minimalisti.com/

Rent to Own.ph: I am always fascinated with how kitchens will evolve in the future. It has to be a "smart" kitchen, balancing function, eco-efficiency, and design. This is one of those.



Ekokook is a one-of-a-kind modern kitchen design created to save energy and water and to recycle non-organic waste. Developed by French design studio Faltazi the innovative smart kitchen design combines a fresh contemporary look with effective built-in features that represent a real ecological system ready to be installed right in your kitchen space.

The overall look of the Ekokook smart kitchen design is very modern and fresh. It has a cool steel finish mixed with a number of bright green elements. It provides a lot of storage space in the form of sliding cabinets and containers. A set of conical green forms are suspended above the kitchen counter. Some of them are used for additional storage and others as pots for kitchen plants that complement the green image and clear the air.

Peter Kubik's Electrolux Futuristic Table

from: http://www.yankodesign.com/

Rent to Own.ph: Read about this technologically advanced smart table!  

The two things that I see common regarding perception of futuristic technology is that products are going to be compact and well integrated. Take for example this futuristic dining table, its designed with all the modern convenience integrated within its belly. Once you sit down, you needn’t get up to make a toast or fetch the coffee, get an apple from the fridge or even wash your dishes. It’s all integrated into the table.

 The Form:

1)   A circular five-seater table with retractable chairs that fit flush with the frame of the table when not in use.

Tiny Houses & Little Lots: Floor Plans for Very Small Homes


www.renttoown.ph
Floor plans for small houses often look cramped on all sides, drawn furniture crowding each interior space. Not so with the work of Atelier Bow-Wow, an architecture and design group that (as the dog-referencing name suggests) specializes in the creation of extra-small dwellings as well as tall residences on tiny lots that bridge the gap between ‘little’ and ‘luxury’ living.

Gallery Display
Use floating shelves to show off a collection of decorative objects and mementos. Stagger the shelves for a unique look. Basic shelves serve as a strong basis for rotating displays. They will go with almost anything, which means you can change the look of the vignette, leaving the shelves in place and avoid making any more holes in your apartment walls
