Timber-Integrated Saucepans

Kaico Cookware Demonstrates the Recipe for Delicious Design

— May 6, 2014 — Art & Design
Intended for one of the messiest rooms in the home, the Kaico Cookware collection was executed with extraordinarily clean design. Makoto Koizumi created the pot, the pan, the kettle and the lids from steel in beautiful smooth shapes, and these were then coated with a lovely chalky enamel.

The pure whites of the Japanese culinary items are complemented with the incorporation of a lovely natural material. Pale maple wood -- showing off its exquisite wood grain patterns -- has been used to make up the thick cylindrical handles of the Kaico Cookware series, as well as the knobs on the tops. These pristine pieces would be stunning additions to your kitchen, and they would definitely encourage diligent dishwashing.

1. Timber-integrated Design - Incorporating wood material in different designs can offer a new way to approach product designs and enable unique features.
