I’m in love with this piece of brilliance: A sink of dirty dishes that washes itself. Developed by a German and Korean design studio called Ahhaproject, Electrolux has patented the design. Which means while it is not on the market yet, there is a good chance it will be in the future. Here are the details of Eco Automatic:
At the press of a button, a sink packed with dirty dishes pivots 180 degrees, disappearing under the counter, while a second sink appears in its stead. Under the counter and fully covered, the first sink kicks into dishwasher mode, rinsing plates and pans and knives as would any Kenmore or Whirlpool. Meanwhile, the second sink can be piled up with new dirty dishes. Press the button, and the sinks turn another 180 degrees, triggering the cycle all over again. In effect, it’s two sinks and two dishwashers in one.
