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.

The smart
kitchen design uses three separate
built-in installations working together to the kitchen and the environment’s
greatest benefit. The first system is used to store non-organic waste and
process it to the point of its origin. Five different units are used to store
glass, metal, plastic, paper and other refuse and every separate kind goes
through special machines that break or compress it.

All the processed waste produced through the smart kitchen design goes to the second kitchen installation which recycles it.
The refuse is broken down by an earthworm compost container in the shape of a
sealed drum. Through rotation the drum processes the waste further and
gradually turns it into compost for a period of about three months. Mixed with
water the newly produced compost can be used for fertilizer. That is how this
smart system helps preserve the natural environment while the home benefits
from it.

Just as impressive is the third built-in installation of the
Ekokook smart
kitchen design. This one represents a water recycling system. It
works by collecting and filtering used water and using it to water the kitchen
plants. It is another feature created in favor of nature and of your own budget
as well. According to the designers you can save up to 15 liters of water a day
that way.
