Stove Burners That Hang on the Wall When You Don't Need Them

Induction made portable

By Rain Noe - February 21

Plenty of urban dwellers can, and do, live without ovens. I was one of them, and my friends in New York that did have ovens often used them to store sweaters. But few can live without a stovetop.

The problem with stovetops in a space-tight apartment is that they take up so much dang space. Most city apartments have tiny kitchens and every square inch counts. So Adriano Design's Ordine, a stowable dual-burner induction hub system, looks like it would come in handy.

A revolution that changes the concept of the kitchen top, a cooking hub you can place when and where you need it, and then, once fulfilled it its purpose, you can hang it like a pan.

More freedom to arrange the cooking space, modularity, scalability, like a building block to build a cooking narrative, unthinkable magical scenarios of a new architecture to come. Ordine transforms and creates a new order … in the kitchen.

Another of the company's offerings is the Cucinotta, designed for spaces where there isn't even a counter to spare. And it comes with a self-contained hood:

A simple wooden structure supports an induction hub, a utility drawer (that may be transformed into a fridge) and a hood, all easily transportable to anywhere, attached only to a discreet red power cord.

I like it. There is a lot of safety advantages to the concept which I think is important. With this concept you can easily arrange all the induction plates further to the back, decreasing the likelihood of a child trying to grab the handle of a pot or pan. I also like the fact that you used induction as your heating method since it makes for an ever safer product compared to more conventional stove tops that uses a heated surface.
I would like to see more than two induction plates as I believe two will fall short when it comes to preparing bigger meals. I would also consider moving the controls in front of the induction plates to prevent burns caused by steam from pots and pans. Even though the induction plates can be placed on the sides of the controls to make a clear path to the controls, you might only do this after learning the hard way.

Love the concept, but are those the real buttons? Seems I'd have to read a guide to figure out how to work it.

Very similar to the IKEA version of this. But better looking I must say ;)

  It's induction, so as long as you don't have steel in your back pocket, you'll be fine.
