At first glance one would think that Philippe Starck’s iconic juicer was a spider-inspired piece of artwork due to the three long legs that supports what seems to be a rocket ship-shaped body. Surprisingly, the designer actually thought of the similar inspiration. The juicer is now considered as an icon of contemporary industrial design; it even earned its place in New York’s Museum of Modern Art. However, the juicer itself according to Starck was intended to be a conversation piece rather than a juicer. In 1989, Alessi originally approached the Italian designer to design a stainless steel tray, but after a trip to a ...

According to a famous proverb in some Asian countries, if one wants to know the personality of the woman of a household, one can look at the kitchen of that house. In other words, the organization of the kitchen comes to define the personality of the person who is responsible for taking care of it. A kitchen that has a gallimaufry of random stuff lying around is representative of a disorganized and confused personality. Similarly, a kitchen with everything at the right place signals a well-disciplined person. Therefore, organizing a kitchen carries great importance. First of all, in order to organize a kitchen, one needs to ...

There is an obvious lack of respect and etiquette amongst members of staff. The chef is so to the extent that loud customers in the dining room ...

When making procurement decisions, the opportunity cost must be evaluated. Resources are scarce while human needs are unlimited. Economists continue to face the problem of scarcity and choice. One thing is bought at the expense of another. Since resources are limited and needs are unlimited, persons habitually purchase products that will give them the maximum value.

For example, one has $9500 which they can use to buy a bungalow or a Prado as those needs are at the topmost of his priority ...

"Trifles" by Susan Glaspell "Trifles" by Susan Glaspell is a play replete with symbolism.

They can do this because the symbolism of these trifles is so strong that the third woman never appears on ...

Wash a vessel, shake water off it, without rubbing it with a towel and put it on the stove. Light it. Tiny droplets move around in a furious dance, moments before they evaporate. Residual stock on the walls of the vessel is drawn in too, seemingly by these massless, baseless droplets in an effort to make more of their own kind. Drawn into the fight like unwilling gladiators, they collide, forcefully moving away from the vapour and then moving into it, becoming vapour. For me, the kitchen is an embodiment of all kinds of wonders in the world, a place where patience actually ...

This essay discusses the future of robots. But what exactly do we mean by “robot”? The Oxford dictionaries’ primary definition of a robot is “a machine capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically, especially one programmable by a computer.” (The dictionary claims the origin of robot to be from the Czech robota, meaning forced labor). However, to many, a robot is envisaged as a machine in more or less human shape, having the human-like capabilities of intelligence, of speech, and movement. An example could be the gold-colored figure of C3-PO in the Star Wars movies. In reality, robots come in ...
