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.
Enter a caption (optional)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.

Stove Burners That Hang on the Wall When You Don't Need Them
I induce that induction is the way to go.
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.
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 ;)
I can hardly wait until someone sits on the chair...
hahaha
It's induction, so as long as you don't have steel in your back pocket, you'll be fine.
