It is inspired by the experimentation of different materials and manufacturing processes. He designed this design the kitchen island in his experiments - a kitchen island in concrete.

concrete design of the kitchen island

In general, concrete is poured into a rectangular shape, so that we know as natural material and geometry, but the concrete is a liquid mass and can be molded into any shape that is given. The shape of the kitchen island is rectangular as in the industrial world, but because the form used was made of textile, concrete had changed under the influence of gravity and get a nice texture. The shape of the fabric allows the concrete to flow in many different directions and thus create different surfaces. This design of the kitchen island can be custom designed and are used both inside and outside.
