The Future of Dining
Robots aren’t rising up to enslave us just yet, but they are making salads for us at the Sweetgreen Infinite Kitchen. In this automation-powered restaurant, technology and human touch harmoniously blend to create a frictionless dining experience. Picture bowls gliding down a conveyor belt, with customer selections being seamlessly added. Could this be the future of food preparation?
Keeper by Teixeira Design Studio
Marrying style and functionality, Keeper is a shoe rack with a twist. Its soft seat features rounded corners that seamlessly attach to the recessed top, doubling as a side table for your daily accessories. With a focus on affordability, sustainability and minimalistic design, Keeper’s clean lines and thoughtful details make it a must-have piece.
Zephalto – Lunch at the Edge of Space
Ready to embark on a gastronomic voyage? Zephalto invites you to “dare the dream” by enjoying a once-in-a-lifetime dining experience at the edge of space. Board a capsule designed by Joseph Dirand, the creative mind behind Paris’ Loulou and Monsieur Bleu restaurants. Next, fly 15.5 miles above the Earth’s surface, witness the curvature of our planet (without the zero gravity experience) and indulge in exquisite meals prepared by French chefs and guided wine tastings from an onboard sommelier
Etihad x Armani Casa
Etihad are elevating the in-flight dining experience for business class passengers with the remarkable Armani/Casa “Constellation Collection” of tableware. Bringing the sophistication of high-end restaurants to the skies, this partnership showcases the commitment of luxury travel to create memorable moments for travellers. It’s also an interesting example of how clever brand collaborations are being implemented by the luxury travel industry.
