The creators of Noori based the product on the traditional rocket stove design, which burns small-diameter wood fuel in a combustion chamber linked to an insulated vertical chimney. It was developed by three friends who studied together on the Permaculture Design Course at the IPEMA university in Ubatuba, Brazil. Permaculture focuses on working with, rather than against nature, with the goal of integrating design and ecology.
"The idea was to design a product that could transport us from our day-to-day routine and excessive information flow, to a time when fire and cooking with fire was at the core of our rituals," explained the team.

During their studies, designer Eduardo Gayotto, environmental engineer Plinio Ruschi and architect Pedro Heldt learned about the highly efficient rocket stove, which they adapted to create a versatile...
