The INSIDER Summary:
2017-04-14
Traditional utensil sets are bulky and take up space in your kitchen.
The Ori-Kit is an origami-inspired kitchen set designed to save space and time.
Each set comes with six foldable and lightweight utensils you can use anywhere and anytime.
If you've ever spent hours organizing your kitchen, you know how Amr Aboelnasr felt when he first thought of the idea behind the Ori-Kit.
The brainchild of Aboelnasr and Egyptian artist Anas Elshafey, the Ori-Kit offers six foldable, portable, and lightweight utensils inspired by origami as a sleek alternative to bulky utensil sets.
Not to mention its innovative design is just plain cool — even by Martha Stewart's standards. Here's a closer look at the beautiful design:
The six-piece Ori-Kit comes with three spoons, one turner, one funnel, and one colander. Each piece can be used in various ways.
Since it launched on April 4, 2017, the Ori-Kit has raised almost $16,000 (at the time of publication) on Kickstarter, with 390 backers so far. Its goal is to reach $50,000 by June 3, 2017 in order to be funded. If you pledge your support, you can even choose an exclusive offer; for example, if you pledge $56 or more, you will receive 2 Ori-Kit sets at a discount of 33%.
Aboelnasr and Elshafey hope to ship the first sets by September 2017.
If you like what you see, pledge your support for the Ori-Kit by June 3, 2017 on Kickstarter.
