A perfectly designed kitchen cannot get the stamp of completion with a well positioned sink missing. If you are looking out for one, then we have an option. Kohler, takes the concept of kitchen sinks to the next levels of innovation by giving it a taste of technology with their latest baby called the ‘Kohler Crevasse rinsing sink’. It won’t be an exaggeration, if the term ‘futuristic’ is associated with this designer wonder designed by world-class designer Anne Kitzmiller.
At the first look the Kohler Crevasse rinsing sink looks something like a 33-inch stainless steel slit cut out of your kitchen counter top. What next? Press the button…and there it cleans out all the food material down the drain. If that was less, press another button and put on the automatically synchronized garbage disposer!
The switch that lets you play with the gadget is equally funky in its stainless steel avatar with an edge-lit indicator, that glows the moment when the water is done with rinsing the of the sink. Hmm…I’m already getting greedy to gift this futuristic gadget to my kitchen!

The washing machine concept that we are going to talk about now will make many many people happy the moment it gets a life. Right from the lady at home whe is most of the time sulking for water shortage to the government who keeps shouting loud to pass on the message of ‘aving water’.
Now if you are thinking that a washing machine can only waste water then let me brief you about this concept called Xeros washing machine designed by the he British inventors. This unique washing machine uses just a single cup of water to wash those piles of clothes
works in the washing machine instead of water are thousands of special plastic chips. In every wash the chips get heated as the available one cup of water heats up and absorb the dirt and stains from the clothes. Once the washing is over the chips are removed and they can be reused upto 100 times.
If all goes well you’ll see this washing machine in the market around next year and we are sure it will take the eco-friendly revolution to the next level of innovation.
