Ventilation solutions in cooking areas of the home are essential to help combat against smoke and odor but often take up a fair bit of overhead space above a cooktop, so this conceptual downdraft kitchen exhaust is intended to change this.
The drawer-like exhaust solution works by being positioned underneath of a cooktop and will go to work with strategically placed inlets to capture smoke and odors before they can be dispersed into an environment. This could help to drastically reduce the occurrence of cooking smells in a living space without having to deal with conventional kitchen range hoods that can take up a fair bit of space, physically and visually.
The conceptual downdraft kitchen exhaust is the design work of Oliver Hatton and Nicolas Schmitt for VanBerlo Agency.
