No More A Cookbox / Designer: Anoush Mortazavi

Microwaves have always been boxy in design.

Just changing their outward appearance isn’t innovation enough!

The challenge is to come up with a practical design that is radical in features, plus space saving enough to abide by the modern-day kitchen diktats.

Innowave is one such approach to out-of-the-box thinking.

The microwave has been redesigned to fit in a kitchen like a regular drawer, thus freeing up the work surface.

Features include the mode stirrer, an extremely slow rotating aluminum blade that replaces the regular turntable.

The front door is a hollow stainless steel structure, housing the electronics.

It includes a magnetic steel switch that turns off the microwave instantly, protecting against accidental opening.

The steel handle is attached to borosilicate glass containing the capacitive touch screen for navigation.

Overall I think this a refreshing approach to the tried and tested. What do you think?
