This freeing from convention not only facilitates extra-curricular activities in the kitchen, but also enhances the cooking experience itself. In fact, Gaggenau’s design team observed an instant change in habits when testing out the system, with people instinctively placing ingredients and utensils immediately around the ، when cooking. It represents a significant behavioural change from our norm of working around the rigidity of a 60 cm cooktop. It’s a habit perhaps we didn’t know we wanted, but when the opportunity is given, we don’t hesitate to adopt, as it eases the flow of work and boosts the joy of cooking.
