The system is part of the Elements Collection and boasts a 90cm suction element that's positioned in a low-level manner to capture smoke or vapor before it can release into the wider space. The exhaust section is flanked by a series of storage compartments that hold smaller sections inside for organizing cooking utensils, spices and more. Falmec commented on the 'Monolith' extractor hood saying, "The models making up our Elements Collection transcend traditional boundaries of aspiration, interpreting the suction element in an innovative way, becoming part of a [modular architecture that is multifunctional](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/integrated-kitchen-appliance) and fully integrated into the kitchen." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 37% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 15% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## 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 - **Multifunctional Kitchen Appliances:** Combining kitchen appliances into one multifunctional unit can optimize space and make cooking more efficient. - **Hidden Storage Solutions:** Designing products with clever storage compartments adds value and convenience for consumers. - **Innovative Exhaust Systems:** New approaches to eliminating kitchen exhaust can improve air quality and reduce energy consumption. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Kitchen Appliances:** The kitchen appliance industry can continue to innovate by designing new products that combine multiple functions and offer unique solutions. - **Home Design:** Furniture and home decor companies can offer products with hidden storage compartments, making them even more appealing to consumers. - **Green Technology:** Companies that specialize in air purifiers and other green technologies can explore innovative approaches to indoor air quality. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Stealthy Functional Kitchen Hoods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mono-kitchen-hood.md) - [Moveable Kitchen Range Hoods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airhood.md) - [Connected Kitchen Range Hoods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ciarra-infinity.md) - [Space-Saving Range Hoods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oilvent.md) - [Mini Kitchen Cooking Purifiers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kokir-cooking-curifier.md) - [Adjustable Lamp-Like Hood Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchen-air-purifier.md) - [Concealed Kitchen Ventilation Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchen-ventilation1.md) - [Connected Kitchen Range Hoods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-bespoke-smart-wall-mount-hood.md) - [Mobile Quad-Filter Range Hoods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/breetee-portable-range-hood.md)
