This is the idea behind Targa Italia’s kitchen in a box concept. Like the Casulo before it, Targa Italia focuses on space saving and portability. When open, the kitchen features a full suite of appliances along with ample counterspace and even a pull out table. When the cooking is done, the entire system folds up neatly into a box form.
It seems like a great idea, but the box doesn’t seem all that compact. So, I have to wonder whether or not the kitchen would really save a lot of space and be easy to transport in and out of doorways or up and down stairs. On the other hand, I can see something like this working as an outdoor kitchen quite easily. Put it out on a patio, then fold it up to make room for guests and/or use it as a table for food and drink. [Targa Italia via Dornob via Treehugger]
