It’s a frequent enough problem that Danish design company Normann Copenhagen has created a clever, award-winning solution. They’ve designed a beautiful collection of kitchen tools, all that that fold down to a fraction of the volume to comfortably fit in a drawer.
The rubber and steel colander is sturdy enough to handle any load of pasta, fruits, or vegetables, but folds down to the size of a small frisbee.
