Electrolux ‘Heart of the Home’ Kitchen Concept

‘Heart of the Home’ is an intelligent, amorphous, interchangeable cooking surface that adapts to user needs. When using the Heart of the Home one simply places one’s ingredients on the surface. The appliance then analyses the ingredients and presents a list of suitable recipes. After deciding on a recipe, the user marks an area with his hand to determine how large the cooking area should be. Then the desired depth of the surface is created by simply pressing the hand against the malleable material. After achieving the required width and depth it’s just a matter of setting temperature and time with a simple touch of a finger.

“I really like this concept from Electrolux. I specifically find the auto recipe function to be very innovative and inspiring. Although I do feel the cooking function to take some of the fun out of cooking and possible create the affect of laziness. Another area to question is were in the kitchen would this go?”
