According to [DeZeen](http://www.dezeen.com/2008/05/11/b2-by-bulthaup)Design Magazine, its design is based on the philosophical origins of every living space, water and fire. The kitchen design workshop layout is comprised of three main elements: a '[workbench' housing the sink](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchen-sink-system) and cooker, 'tool cabinet' for utensils, crockery and food, and appliance cabinet for the oven, dishwasher and fridge. "bulthaup b2 is a kitchen that either conceals everything or showcases it," Dezeen says. "Opening the in-door storage doors provides an overview of the entire kitchen domain. Everything needed for a two person household is visible at a glance and within reach. The smart compaction of the storage space makes pull-outs and drawers unnecessary." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 50% | Activity: 47% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Open and Mobile Kitchens:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop modular kitchen designs that can be easily reconfigured and moved to accommodate changing needs and spaces. - **Systematic Observation of Lifestyle and Food:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create kitchen designs that integrate technology and data analytics to optimize food preparation and promote healthy eating habits. - **Smart Compaction of Storage Space:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design compact storage solutions that maximize space utilization and eliminate the need for pull-outs and drawers. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Kitchen Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Rethink traditional kitchen layouts and materials to create more flexible and customizable designs. - **Home Appliances:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop innovative appliances that seamlessly integrate into open and mobile kitchen designs. - **Data Analytics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Apply data analytics and machine learning algorithms to gain insights into lifestyle and eating habits, fostering the development of personalized kitchen solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pro-Grade Self-Standing Kitchens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brio-kitchen-box.md) - [Chef-Designed Outdoor Prep Stations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/everdure-mobile-prep-kitchen.md) - [Tech-Informed Modular Kitchens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rekook.md) - [Vehicular All-In-One Kitchens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allinone-kitchen.md) - [Contemporary Modular Outdoor Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/base-kitchen.md) - [Cabinet-Style Kitchen Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/next125-pocket-system.md) - [Outdoor Modular Kitchen Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outdoor-modular-kitchen.md) - [Minimalist Modular Kitchens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sensient-cosmetic-technologies.md) - [Ultra-Modern Exterior Kitchen Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atria-outdoor-kitchen-system.md)
