An entry at the Electrolux DesignLab 2009 contest, the “Egg” by Romanian designer Vlad Icobet is an all in one cooking and food preparation unit that unfolds like a flower from a cylindrical starting position. The wings form three separate units that provide a place to prepare food, a cooking surface and a washing facility. The Egg also includes an interactive holographic projector that allows the user to find information online to create recipes or get cooking instructions. When not in use, the Egg can be easily stowed to save space. It can be customized in any color to fit any kitchen decor.
