Kitchens of the future are always fascinating and usually dead wrong. We are looking ahead to 2025 with ideas for the Home of the Future, and they are not so wacky.
"This isn't about the Jetsons or pie in the sky ideas," says Lou Lenzi, director for GE Appliances' Industrial Design Operation. Home 2025 is about reality-based innovation that will be possible over the next decade. To project what the Home of 2025 may look like, we first took a high level look at where we think society, culture, and technology is taking us and intersected that with ways in which we could make our lives less complex and more enjoyable.
One of the nicest thing about this is that for example GE Appliances assumes that people actually cook; most kitchens of the future these days have 3D printers turning out our dinner. It's also nice to know that people will still appreciate Global G-series knives.
Preparing healthy meals is made easy with the features of this preparation center. Produce can be easily accessed from sliding mesh dividers which allow humid air to circulate evenly, keeping it fresher longer. The sink is equipped with cleaning, drying and cutting areas. An automatically watered herb garden is within reach to boost the flavor of your meals.
With the in-sink dishwasher in GE's Home 2025, wash small loads in just 5 minutes. Integrated sensors in the sink alert you when chemicals or bacteria are present in your produce, so you can keep washing your produce until the readout says the contaminants are gone.
