Project:

HUB

Product Type:

Kitchen Appliance

Description:

This modular, multi-purpose appliance has an integrated elegant design inside and out. I wanted to create a solution that would reduce the environmental impact of manufacturing appliances that serve only one purpose. Additionally, this modular approach minimizes the amount of storage required for cooking appliances given today’s limited space in our kitchens. Lastly, HUB is designed to be extremely easy to diagnose and service, so consumers are empowered to fix the product if something goes wrong as opposed to throwing it away – therefore extending the longevity of the product.

Themes:

With the amount of waste produced in the US, the goal of this project was to design a platform that offers multiple environmental benefits and reduces use of materials as well as waste.
