Hot Shelter
Our homes are constantly flooded by lifeless objects with no personality, in the form of boxes which we call electrical appliances.
Determined to intervene profoundly in the concept of a toaster as we know it (a box-like shape with two slots), we revolutionized this object by deconstructing its entire structural component and classical technology. The intention was to create a free, autonomous and uninhibited form, and the result was a toaster with an organic structure, able to envelop the bread, cradling it and keeping it warm, even when it has been toasted.
