Flow2, designed by John Arndt and Wonhee Jeong of Studio Gom, is a living kitchen where nature and technology are integrated together to create an efficient closed cycle. In the Flow2 Kitchen, food is grown, stored, cooked and composted to grow more food. The Flow2 Kitchen focuses on three major areas Waste, Water and Energy.
The hanging dish rack offers vertical storage for drying dishes; water from the dish rack drips on the herbs and edible plants that are grown in the planter boxes positioned below the rack.
The Flow2 evaporative cooling fridge box keeps food cool through evapo-transpiration. The space between the double walls is filled with water which slowly seeps through the outer wall and evaporates, causing the inside temperature to cool. It is ideal for storing vegetables, fruit, eggs, cheese and butter. The evaporative cooling fridge box keeps food cool, reducing the need for a larger conventional fridge.
The storage jars are made from unglazed earthenware with beech wood lids. They utilize the natural porous properties of earthenware, creating an ideal environment for maintaining the consistency of bread, extending the life of garlic and onions, storing grains and growing herbs.
Kitchen scraps, newspaper, junk mail and paper scraps can be added to the vermicomposter. Worms break down food and turn it into worm castings, a nutrient rich fertilizer.
