In the Kitchen

No doubts it’s the age of multitasking and those who are adroit at that need not worry about anything, for they walk away with laurels most of the time. And throwing a party is also no exception to this rule of multitasking. Moreover, this is one area where you actually have to play a lot many roles to keep the things in good shape.

So to help you with that, comes this unique one handed serving tray. This will not only help you serve drinks to your guests, but will also leave you free to welcome the guests comfortably. The unique handle of the tray that flexes out at a 55-degree angle, always keeps the tray in an upright position.

Apart from this, the tray features a non-slip rubberized surface for extra stability and comes handy enough to carry not just drinks but food as well as a bottle of wine, without any chances of tipping and falling.

It seems to be a great option, but honestly speaking, I’ll prefer to ire a butler to serve drinks and keep myself free to welcome the guests rather than roaming around holding that tray.

Shaun Redsar is a designer whose product have a tinge of Victorian age. He is a visionary product designer graduating from Otis College of Art Design in the spring of 2007.

He designed this unique Zygo teapot after gaining inspiration from the human experience. Like our ribs, which save our heart inside it, similarly there is ‘delicate yet sturdy ceramic frame’ embracing stainless steel teapot.

Kitchens these days are being designed to be the focal point of contemporary interiors. It has also become a place to socialize while you cook without having to be embarrassed about the clutter which is normally the case with kitchens.

A perfect example of a well designed kitchen where attention is paid to the smallest details is Sheer. The Sheer is an unusual kitchen unit that is in the shape of a sphere. It is a circular island which becomes a lamp emitting a soft glow when it is closed and comes with a remote control with which you can split the sphere to unravel the designed-to-detail kitchen when you want to.

The lower half of the sphere holds a double sink, a four burner unit, three bottle coolers and retractable table and trolleys. The upper half sphere houses a ventilator hood and a lighting panel. The peninsular design is completed by a solid pull-out table in aluminum and steel. which encloses two electric switches for small domestic appliances.

Where do you store your groceries? A wall unit which comes along with four folding chairs as a part of the package makes this a complete kitchen. Of course you’ll have to figure out a space for a large-fridge and your microwave.

The lower half comes in a metallic finish and the upper half is a translucent metacrylic to give it a contemporary feel and look.

You really don’t need another focal point when you have a Sheer. All good things come with a price tag and I’m sure this is no exception!
