Kitchen have always been the space where people spend a great deal of their time when they are at home, and things we do there are not limited to just cooking and having meals. Brands are doing their great part in developing smart, beautiful and efficient solutions for modern kitchens—such home comfort providers as IKEA, Electrolux and Philips to name a few are recognized leaders in the sphere, but brands from other fields have taken up the challenge, too. Diesel, one of the leaders in the casual apparel industry, is also contributing. The brand has teamed up with Italian kitchen furniture brand Scavolini to create the Social Kitchen, which have become part of Diesel’s ‘Successful living’ collection.

Clothing, footwear and accessory giants often team up with fashion designers to create a new collection, but collaborations of food brands and fashion are not that frequent. This fact makes people want to get such products even more. In Australia, Kellogg’s cereal brand Special K has unveiled a bag, which was created by fashion designer Kirrily Johnston, which became both the promotional piece and an item in designer’s new Spring/Summer collection presented at the Mercedes Benz Fashion. This handbag with a leather tassel is crafted for female consumers who always carry a snack with them wherever they go—it features a specially designed snack bar pocket, where ladies can keep her Special K snack bar.

Nike and Skype have launched new activations revolving around human faces. The online ‘Free Face’ game, which was kicked off by Nike in Japan, is designed to promote Nike iD, the brand’s branch which is focused on customization and adjusting to consumers’ preferences. The new digital Flash platform, developed by Wieden+Kennedy Tokyo, invites fans to give their faces a workout and (with the help of the web camera) put them next to Nike ID’s sneakers, which can easily mimic the facial expressions thanks to their flexible soles.
