Accompanied by a prestigious jury of architects, designers and chefs, Frigo2000 and POLI.design - Politecnico di Milano welcome a new design challenge: Home cooking school to design a high performance kitchen and to teach cooking techniques online

Also this year, for the fourth edition, Frigo2000 is partner and promoter of Conviviality 4 Kitchen and Modern Living, the international workshop of the Industrial Design for Architecture university master of the Politecnico di Milano and POLI.design which combines the disciplinary skills of industrial design with those of architecture. After a year of pandemic, it became clear how the union between food and technology represented the perfect synthesis of this experience: online cooking courses, web experiences, private lessons at a distance have punctuated everyone's daily life.

The goal of the laboratory was the development of concepts capable of integrating the different kitchen appliances, enhancing their functions and innovation to the point of making the space for preparing and cooking food a stage for remote teaching. Teaching how to use technology to create food and wellbeing is the aim of the three finalist kitchens of the workshop. The individual concepts were developed starting from an analysis of the characteristics of the kitchen environment and the most recent trends in food preparation and consumption.
