Cooking equipment is kept hidden away in many living spaces around the world, but the Family Multifunction Cooker aims to bring it into focus by enabling you to cook in a more social manner. Conceptually designed by Ellie Zeng, the cooker is intended to be the focal point during a gathering when utilized for barbecuing, boiling or steaming foods. This is a far cry from traditional cooking equipment that is often hidden in the kitchen and emptied before being brought to the dining table for everyone to enjoy.
The Family Multifunction Cooker is intended to be utilized in relaxed atmospheres like the living room in order to make it a truly more social piece of equipment to keep in the home.
