The Electrolux Design Lab Competition is always based on different themes each time it takes place. This year’s theme was “a household item for the next 90 years.” Various designers around the globe, in a quest to win the competition, are showing off their designs, Balin Lee being one of them. Inspired by the growth of trees in nature, the Kitchen Tree incorporates futuristic technology to meet our needs.
