picks from designboom's dining in 2015 competition 2008. '+/- hot plate' designed by ami drach
and dov ganchrow combines ceramic and technology together. using the conductive properties
of silk-screened gold and amorphic metal films (in the same manner printed circuit boards or car windshield defrosters work) they created '+/- hot plate'. users simply have to hook up the plate to an electrical source
and the current will run through the 'decoration' keeping food stuff warm.
