The Angry Banana design collective is a group created during the last term to work on a "live" project with LG. Yesterday, we got our first media publication!
Stone Conceptual Kitchen Appliances by Angry Banana
Our project uses induction technology to operate kitchen appliances in a new and interesting way. Because of the unique properties of induction heating paired with an innovative design, these appliances, even the saucepan, can be taken straight from the stove to the table without creating melt or burn marks.
The lack of any electrical components also means that these appliances, made from porcelain, birch, and stainless steel, can be cleaned under running water and are even dishwasher safe. Because of their unique design, we hope they will last a generation, rather than the usual 5-7 year lifespan of most kitchen appliances.
