kitchen, is especially effective for easy access to items stored deep in the higher units of the upper cabinets.
essentially, it comprises a movable front and back rack installed in a wall unit. When one pulls the front rack down, it lowers both racks in one smooth operation for easy reach without the use of stools.
“one of the space-saving features is the shoe rack which is able to accommodate up to 54 pairs of shoes.
“the shoes are placed on both back and front of the rack to maximise space. By rotating the rack, one can easily reach for the shoes placed on either side,” said PanaHome business development manager Matsumiya Hisashi.
Objective
the recently launched PanaHome “eco ideas” house aims to showcase the strength of the Panasonic Group in building solutions. It demonstrates sustainable living, as well as the company’s latest green technologies.
When asked why Panasonic chose Malaysia to build this showhouse, PanaHome corporation Japan president and ceo Yasuteru Fujii, replied: “the Malaysian population and economy grow every year, therefore there will be constant demand for houses.
“also, since environment and energy concerns are getting highlighted as part of the national agenda, it is something we can do for Malaysia by taking advantage of our experiences in Japan.”
He added, “We also acknowledge the established and longstanding presence of Panasonic Malaysia as providing strong leverage to realising our concept of Smart eco houses and smart cities.”
“PanaHome aims to make a difference and provide brand new options for people’s lifestyles in Malaysia and eventually for the rest of South-east asia. Moreover, we plan to become Malaysia’s No.1 Green Innovation company in the housing industry,” commented Fujii.
Panasonic Malaysia managing director Jeff Lee explained: “We are indeed excited about introducing new building technologies to Malaysia. We are truly building an ‘econation’.”
the company hopes for this house to attract interest from new home buyers, developers, interior designers and architects.”
For those who are interested to convert their home into one that incorporates Panasonic’s eco ideas, guideline pricing ranges from RM200 per sq ft to RM300 per sq ft.
