Ice Cream Concept Parlour

The Ice Cream Concept Parlour by Thai design student Ploenpit Nittaramorn is a low-tech kit that encourages people to ditch the ready meals and get creative in the kitchen.

The parlour provides the tools – including a lemon squeezer, paddles and a pestle and mortar – for people to combine their fresh ingredients before pouring the mixture onto a frozen marble board and churning it by hand. The frozen surface freezes the mixture in minutes – handy for the time-poor individual.

The project was designed to explore our relationship with ready-made produce. Ploenpit says: “People have become less connected to the food they eat and where it’s made because the shortcut is available in every local supermarket.”
