A kitchen workspace and a method of organizing a kitchen workspace is set forth. The kitchen workspace is consolidated into a small footprint area with automated vertical storage shelves for storing and housing kitchen items and kitchen appliances. The automated storage shelves may be provided with electrical power for powering kitchen appliances found on the shelves. Kitchen appliances may be rotated around the automated storage shelves while the appliances are being used. A user of the kitchen workspace is able to stand in a fixed position and access all kitchen items and appliances without moving from the fixed standing position.

An apparatus having one or more cavities and corresponding one or more protrusions is disclosed. The one or more cavities and corresponding one or more protrusions can be flattened to cause the apparatus to adhere to an object. Thus, the apparatus can be used in applications where adherence of the apparatus to an object is desired. The apparatus can also act as a protective layer to buffer and protect a surface of the object. It is also possible to maintain the surface's visual appearance, if beneficial. The apparatus can also be used in applications where buffering and protection from friction is not needed.

A laminated countertop assembly can include a first generally longitudinal slab with a first substrate, where the first substrate has lamination on a countertop side of the first substrate and lamination on an edge side of the first substrate that extends along a first portion of a length of the edge side of the first substrate. The first substrate can also include a first miter cut angled into the first substrate and slots extending into the first substrate for receiving biscuits. The laminated countertop assembly can also include a second generally longitudinal slab with a second substrate, where the second substrate has lamination on a countertop side of the second substrate and lamination on an edge side of the second substrate. The second substrate can also include a second miter cut at a corner of the second substrate and slots extending into the second substrate for receiving the biscuits.

The invention relates to a kitchen furniture item having a carcass and an interior at least partially enclosed by the carcass, wherein the interior has a front-side access opening which is covered by means of a plate-shaped closure element (21, 22) which lies in a front plane of the carcass and can be reversibly opened and closed by a user, wherein the closure element has a plate-shaped pivoting part (21) and a likewise plate-shaped pulling part (22), and wherein a horizontal edge of the pivoting part (21) runs along a horizontal edge of the pulling part (22), and the parts are connected to one another at these common edges in such a way that, in order to open a first portion of the interior, the pivoting part (21) can be pivoted about a horizontal axis such that it bears against the front side of the pulling part (22).
