In a new cooperation with the prestigious Milanese Domus Academy in Italy, Electrolux is mentoring 10 students in its Masters Program in Product Design. The students must propose solutions for the kitchen inspired by three elements: the home, sustainability and culture. Selected students in the Domus Academy’s Masters Program in Product Design must rethink the kitchen and its appliances based on the theme “Re-Source”.
“To re-source oneself is to re-generate, re-energize, re-mix and re-lax,” says Bruno Lizotte, Design Manager of accounts at Electrolux, “and the appropriate space for this multi-tasking is, more than ever before, the home and its vibrant centre – the kitchen.”

“Every house and every space is unique and you will have to work with the opportunities you have. We have bought a heritage house, being a traditional Singaporean “Shophouse“, so to start we have to work with a long narrow building which offers some limitation in space.”
