Abstract

The kitchen is a source of connection, nourishment and tradition to whanau, friends and community. It is a space that has become associated with routine and ritual, one which reinforced traditional gendered roles and responsibilities. Incoming A+W Co-chair Gina Hochstein gives a talk that looks at the evolution of the kitchen over the last 100 years and how the kitchen has become a space of democratisation. The place and use of the kitchen within the home has helped with dissolving the idea of gender as our society has become more inclusive of diversity and gender fluidity. 1920s The Bauhaus School =- the kitchen of tomorrow 1927 Margarete Schutte Lihotzky - Frankfort kitchen 1940s The kitchen work triangle concept - The Taylorist principle 1950s Kitchen 1950s Gendered role - Kitchen as toy: Barbie 1957-1967: Monanto House of the Future, Disneyland -Tomorrowland, California, USA.
