The ‘Egg' Opens Like a Flower to Reveal Fully Equiped Kitchen

The Egg kitchen design is shaped like a round capsule and unfolds to reveal a flower-shaped counter top.

The Egg kitchen was an entry for the Electrolux DesignLab 2009 contest by designer Vlad Icobet. There are three petals that unfold from the Egg - a food preparation surface, a cooking surface and a washing surface.

The Egg kitchen also comes with a built-in interactive holographic projector which users can use to go online and find recipes and gain help for their cooking.
