As apartments get smaller, explore innovative designs to make the most out of your limited floor space. Swiss kitchen brand Kitchoo has designed compact kitchen systems to suit this need. The K5 Kitchoo set is just 1.3m wide with a depth of 0.65m, yet it manages to fit a sink and retractable mixer, touch- panel induction hob, dishwasher, mini fridge and freezer, and washing machine, with enough table space for an integrated acrylic resin counter. This set can also be delivered assembled, fully equipped and ready to be installed, and comes with a two- year warranty. With such fuss-free solutions, you won’t have to compromise on functionality even with a small kitchen.
THE K5 KITCHOO STARTS AT 3,800 EUROS (S$6,128), NOT INCLUSIVE OF VAT AND TRANSPORT FEES. FIND OUT MORE AT WWW.KITCHOO.COM.
Ever wished your coffee machine was placed right next to your bed so you can wake up to the aromatic scent of piping hot java? Now you can, with the diminutive size of Nespresso’s latest coffee machine! Weighing in at just 2.3kg, the Essenza Mini has a compact body and comes in two designs — a rectangular or triangular shape. It’s also easy to use, with just two buttons to prepare an espresso or lungo. It heats up quickly, too, so you can enjoy your coffee without delay. There’s also an energy-saving feature, and the machine switches to low energy mode after three minutes of non-use, and automatically switches off after nine minutes.
