ROLL&MIX “New kitchen tools 2011″.
We love to be a little part of “2011 Home + Housewares show”.
March 6th-8th. Chicago, il.
Designed by: Marcial Ahsayane
My design is a multifunctional kitchen roller. It is split in two halves. Each half has a different function by itself.
One is an oil bottle and the other one is a mortar for grind and mix. This to parts can be threaded in order to be
used as a roller as well. So the user has three food preparation utensils compacted in one. We use to get dough pizzas,
pastry or batter in the shop. But sometimes we appreciate to prepare dough by ourselves. It is “the handmade time”
we use to spent during weekend. Sometimes as a relaxing hobby, others due we have guests for dinner and we want
to do our best in the kitchen. The design provides a compact tool for the kitchen, easy to store and clean.
The same tool can roll dough and help us to mix natural food for the sauce.
The design is a three in one product. It provides the tools used for roll and mix in a compact way. So the user
has an easy way to cook in the kitchen and to store it. Two metallic threads in the middle made the design
compact or detachable depending of the function desirable. The compact function is for roller. Is when we use
flour, water and yeast to made dough. The detachable function is for mixing. Is when we need to add oil with a
bottle and grid/mix with the other hand.
The form is composed by to joined white bottles. White color provides a clean perception due the product touch
the food in the preparing process. The dimension of each bottle is the standard proportion for a 11oz (33cl) bottle.
It is for instance, the proportion for beer bottle. It is very useful in order to grad it. And the two bottles threaded
provides 18.78” (477mm) length for the roller function. Wrinkled texture is necessary for the roller function in
order to avoid the dough doesn´t stick on the roller and keep a good grip during the mixing process.
We don´t have to much time to cook elaborate food. The grandmother cook is loosed. Contradictorily we have
more resources to get traditional recipes via internet. So the design identifies the possibility to boost the handmade
preparing food and recover old traditional cooking techniques.
The concept is manufactured in white polyethylene HDPE. And Inox for the metallic threads.
The designs invites to users to cook their own pizzas. Encourage to cook own pasta dough, either as a hobby or to offer
or best cuisine to the guests.
