Functional Cartilage





Okay, technically it’s not a kitchen but this accordion table certainly pushes the “chopping block” envelope!  The contemporary preparation zone is disguised as a ridged accessory, inflexible and relatively uninspiring but this is a common trait amongst kitchen transformers!  They like to keep a hidden secret.
This fancy chopping board has the ability to move and twist like a human spine revealing functional accessories and compartments embedded within its functional cartilage, all designed to aid food preparation.  Designers are now focusing on smaller elements and zones within the kitchen and embedding micro transformers within the transforming kitchen framework!
The Mogul thinks that this design shouldn’t just be a table; this should be a full scale remotely operated kitchen island!  That would be special!

Functional Thinking

Purity is a desirable attribute especially if used to disguise complexity!  This design manages to encourage a lingering desire to admire, the type of art gallery presence that demands quiet contemplation to fully appreciate.  By cleverly layering simple linear forms and combining a reserved colour palette this under stated design could be considered a masterpiece of functional thinking! Think about it!

Functional Revolution Through Artistic Evolution

  Amongst the chaos there is order! And here we see a vibrant mix of functional art that inspires the onlooker to delve deeper into this design and realise the complex levels of thought that have inspired such a flagrant disregard for convention. Excitement can be conjured by the exotic, and this design by Gitta Gschwendtner for Schiffini floats the notion that functionality can become an artistic experiment.   To some this may just be a series of boxes but to others this could be seen as an attempt to deliver a functional revolution through artistic evolution. The Mogul approves!

Celestial Island Cluster

Managing to understand and control proportion whilst delivering exemplary functional performance and unrivalled aesthetic impact is a skill which kitchen designers continually hone. Sitting majestically in the centre of the room this island cluster presents itself like an elevated alter of style complete with a ceiling drop that can deliver celestial messages direct to the Gods of design! Soft approachable geometry and the precise sightline and functional arrangement ensure that the impressive architectural scaling must cower down in the presence of this functional master piece. An island is one thing, but if you have enough space why don’t you let your imagination explore the endless possibilities of multi-island arrangements. The Mogul Approves!
