When closed, this piece looks like an ordinary kitchen island that maybe contains a few drawers and other clever storage spaces - it works as a singular surface for sitting down to meals or working on whatever. It is nondescript and would blend with a living space or fit snugly in an out-of-the-way corner of an open loft.
When fully opened, this simple-looking island becomes a complex network of cooking surfaces, cutting spaces, cleaning places and pretty much anything else you could want out of a kitchen. Essentially, it is an interactive miniature kitchen that can be deployed in small condos and studios apartments.
