The Product Tank Kitchen Lets You Cook Meals Directly on and in It

— April 12, 2013 — Art & Design
There's quite a bit happening in the Product Tank Kitchen that you wouldn't be able to discern at first glance. This concept is a remarkably innovative one that streamlines the meal preparation process and reduces the need to use too many dishes.

The designer was inspired by his grandmother, a woman who could easily maintain her independence at home if it weren't for such an inconveniently arranged culinary environment. This proposal places the sink, stovetop and space for a cutting board all in the same unit.

An elevating counter can be set down to a height that's ideal for a seated cook. The Product Tank Kitchen has a dividable basin, two elements and a pair of built-in boilers with faucets that don't require you to lift any full pots.
