# Cubic Kitchen Contraptions Compact4All is a Set of 4 Appliances That Can Be Stacked Together By Wes Walcott | Published 2012-10-04 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compact4all References: [gizmodo](http://gizmodo.com/5948360/space) & [princess.nl](http://www.princess.nl/) Resulting from a collaboration between designer Jan des Bouvrie and appliance maker Princess, Compact4All is a set of four [cube-shaped appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magic-cube-cooking-system) 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allinone-kitchen-appliances), 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/philips-4000-series). 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. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.8/10 - Popularity: 57% | Activity: 19% | 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) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Stackable Appliances:** Opportunity for creating compact and space-saving kitchen solutions. - **Energy Linkage:** Potential for developing appliances that can harness power through connection and efficiency. - **Collaborative Design:** Space for collaboration between designers and appliance makers to create innovative and practical kitchen solutions. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Appliance Manufacturing:** Opportunity for appliance manufacturers to create stackable and space-saving kitchen products. - **Small Space Living:** Potential for targeting products towards singles, students, and those living in tight quarters with limited space. - **Home Design and Decor:** Space for collaboration between designers and appliance makers to create aesthetically pleasing and functional kitchen appliances. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Stackable Modular Induction Cookers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cookmate-kitchen-appliance.md) - [Modular Multifunctional Kitchen Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pronto-and-alto.md) - [Modern Compact Kitchen Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compact-kitchen-appliances.md) - [Micro-Living Kitchen Appliance Hubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchen-appliance-hub.md) - [Space-Saving Cookwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacesaving-cookware.md) - [Telescoping Component Kitchen Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hybrid-kitchen-aid.md) - [Compact Kitchen Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compact-kitchen-appliances1.md) - [One-Person Kitchen Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-cooking-appliance.md) - [Revolutionary Cooking System Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magic-cube-cooking-system.md)
