Introduction of the Kitchen Cloak

日鉄興和不動産株式会社 has launched its latest innovation, the "Kitchen Cloak," aiming to support dual-income households in managing housework efficiently and effectively. This exciting development is part of their latest residential project at Livio Urayasu The Place, where the entry application process begins on July 8, 2025. This system combines the functionality of various appliances and workspaces to streamline household chores and maximize family time.

What is the Kitchen Cloak?

The Kitchen Cloak is designed to enhance both space and time efficiency, integrating essential home tasks into one simplified area. It features a gas-powered clothing dryer called "Kanta-kun," along with a washing machine, folding space, closet storage, and multi-purpose desks, all in a single, functional space. The multi-purpose desk not only serves for ironing but can also double as a dressing table or a workspace suitable for telecommuting, tailored to the preferences of its users.

The Development Background

Over the past decade, 日鉄興和不動産株式会社 has conducted thorough surveys to gauge residents' levels of satisfaction with their living spaces and the demands of housework. Results revealed that laundry chores were particularly burdensome and that gas-powered dryers significantly alleviate this strain. By teaming up with In-Bloom, a company specializing in storage consulting, the team analyzed household logistics and designed the Kitchen Cloak to optimize the connection between the gas dryer and other laundry tasks.

Key Features of the Kitchen Cloak

1. Efficient Laundry Management

One of the standout features of the Kitchen Cloak is the standard installation of the gas-powered clothing dryer in every unit of the Livio Urayasu The Place, a pioneering move for the 京葉ガス area. The dryer allows for high-temperature drying capabilities, which cuts down laundry time significantly—about one-third as long as electric models would require. This ensures a decluttered living space year-round, regardless of weather conditions. The layout promotes accessibility for all family members, transitioning from the traditional vertical setup to a more user-friendly diagonal arrangement.

2. Multi-Functional Closet with Desk Space

The multi-purpose closet, part of the Kitchen Cloak, is key to enhancing the efficiency of post-laundry activities. It allows residents to conduct ironing, sewing, and other tasks in one location. The closet is equipped with hanging rods for garments that need to be air-dried, alongside rolling storage units for folded clothes and towels, making the entire laundry process efficient and hassle-free.

Additionally, the desk space can be used for personal grooming or even telecommuting tasks, outfitted with electrical outlets to facilitate the use of computers and other devices. This versatility responds to the growing demand for work-from-home options while contributing to a more organized and efficient lifestyle.
