Resulting from a collaboration between designer Jan des Bouvrie and appliance maker Princess, Compact4All is a set of four cube-shaped appliances that are constructed in a way that allows them to easily stack on each other like building blocks.
The set contains a coffee maker, kettle, toaster and juicer, all of which are perfect cubes measuring 20x20x20 centimeters. Although the products are designed to appeal to a wide audience, they are likely most suitable for singles, students and people living in tight quarters that stand to reclaim a lot of space by owning stackable appliances.
Additionally, each of the 4 pieces can be plugged in to a separate outlet, but, when combined, they harness the power of energy linkage and only require a single outlet -- kind of like Voltron if he were a kitchen appliance.
