Nowadays, when people’s needs are so diverse, when the trend is to streamline everything, small spaces are no longer a problem for interior design. If the area designated to the kitchen is not too spacious, you must find the most appropriate ways of arranging the furniture, placing the light sources and efficiently manage the storage space, so as to avoid the impression of crowding and clutter. Young and talented designers have conceived optimum solutions for interior designs. One of the most amazing solutions for small kitchens belongs to the German designer Alfred Averbeck from Compact Concepts and it’s called Circle Kitchens. This stunning idea combines current concepts: compaction, miniaturization and the perfect geometry of the circle, combined with high technology. The mini Circular kitchen fits any apartment, but is a good choice for hotel rooms, vacation homes, offices, or just for anyone who loves this concept. 
     The facilities are at the highest level, this kitchen including everything that is required in a classic kitchen: round stainless steel sink, Power and water supply installation kit, drawers with or without doors, vertical Powerdock, lightning set, electrical kit, countertop, dish washer, stove, microwave, sink, fridge, garbage container, etc. The storage capacity can reach up to an equivalent of 12 regular kitchen cabinets. There are many variants of models and colours available for this concept, and depending on the chosen model and related facilities the price may vary between 6000 and 15.000 euro. All this is possible because the ensemble has the ability to rotate with 180 degrees, providing all the facilities of a traditional kitchen. The model is based on the concept of "room inside the room”, allowing the assembly to be positioned independently, where space allows it. On demand, a narrow dinner table shaped like a circle sector can be attached. The customized version has two side cabinets attached and sealed closing system with sliding doors.

For part one of our “Kitchens with a Conscience” series, we’ve got a great product for your kitchen backsplash that offers both style and substance – recycled glass tile. Made from sources like beer bottles through to industrial off-cuts, this material is the perfect way to go green while creating a stunning backsplash. To make recycled glass tiles, producers take waste glass that has been saved from landfill or is no longer usable, and melt it down in a heated furnace, where temperatures can hit well over 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. The molten glass is then put in a mould and trimmed to the right size and form. While recycled glass can be mixed with industrial color, it is best when left in its original form – giving each batch of tiles its own unique look. Bedrock Industries in Seattle (pictured above) create their hand crafted “BlazeStone” tiles using glass that is 100% post-consumer and post-industrial, and they don’t use any oxides or colorants. The company even operates community bottle drives to encourage recycling and ships their tile using recycled boxes. There are many companies that now deal in only recycled glass materials. Others include Eco-Friendly Flooring (pictured below), Aurora Glass (where all proceeds go to benefit St Vincent de Paul) and Sandhill Industries (US).

Ever wanted a certain image in your kitchen or bathroom tiles? Perhaps a kitchen splash back that you dreamed of that you knew would only be possible as a glass splash back? Well now you can have your ceramic tiles with an image of your choice. Imagine Tiles have changed the way we look at the ceramic tile. Is it really easy to customize your tiles, you simply take a picture of the image you want or perhaps it is one you already have and you send it to them as a digital file and they send you one “proof tile”, give them the thumbs up and they mass produce your image and send them to you. Imagine a shower decked out in your own photos or a kitchen displaying images from your travels! Our favorite is grass image tiles for the floor. |
Thanks to Siemens you can now enjoy TV’s built into a kitchen range hood. No this isn't a joke, you can buy one here: Siemens range hood - It has a LCD flat screen and DVD player on the side too. This probably not the best idea considering most the world's white population is fighting an obesity epidemic. However, we would love one if we could afford the US$2500 price tag. |

A company called the Big Chill has launched a range of retro styled fridges. These are great to bring back memories of 'yester-year'. The best part is that they don’t weigh a tonne any more and they house all the technology modern fridges have. Prices start at US$3295 and available in eight different colors.

These Manhandles, while 'unique' might be perfect for an alternative style kitchen (think recycled glass counters, timber veneer, led lighting). They are made from a 'bashed' brass by Soko who have a variety of unique handles in their range - Incidentally, there are also hooks available in the same design style.

You would be forgiven for thinking this wall oven was a breast imaging machine if you didn't see it in context. This creative concept by Gaggenau has completely changed the way in which we (might) use an oven. No more tempting fate as you reach into a hot oven to test the muffins at the back! You just lift the top of the oven and prod the food as much as you like. The 24-inch oven uses its LiftMatic function to raise and lower the glass ceramic base. The company claims that this oven actually reduces heat loss when you open the oven (since heat rises into the oven, instead of out into the room). Built to sit inside top cabinets or on kitchen walls, the oven offers 11 heating methods and has a stainless-steel-tinted glass front. The lift oven has been available since July 2007. |
This three light island bar, created by Meyda, would be perfect for the Kitchen Island. There are a few different colors to choose from, but we love the authenticity of the ‘Weathered Leaf Green’ shown here. The lights would make a great talking point for the kitchen and great for wine enthusiasts. |

Need a kitchen for a limited space? The circular kitchen would be perfect. We love this Clever Kitchen design by CC Concepts. All your shelving and cooking space that you can conceal behind the sliding doors. The basic structure of the modular kitchen consists of a round stainless steel sink with chrome faucet mixer tap, drawers, shelving, room for an oven, microwave, dishwasher and fridge to be installed. All this is made possible through its 360-degree design. The slide doors open and you just spin it around to access the area you need. |
