Udder Table by Katie Stout

Are you sitting down? Katie Stout just completed her sophomore year at RISD and sent me her Udder Table. I have no words about this table other than it makes me slightly nauseated yet also captivated, so I will let Katie describe her reasoning for creating this table: Udder Table depicts society’s dependency on milk while also celebrating the cow and her teats.

Rift Seating from Moroso

Named after the Great Rift Valley, Patricia Urquiola’s latest seating collection for Moroso was geologically inspired. Just like tectonic plates, which diverge, collide and overlap, creating several layers, the Rift sofas and chairs convey, in a highly unusual way, an effect of a sliding movement and asymmetric fusion. The range includes eight interior pieces: a small chair, a slightly larger chair and a settee, three Y-shaped islands and two L-shaped compositions that could be considered either islands or sofas. They are made of stress resistant polyurethane foam in varied densities and polyester fibrefill on a hardwood frame.

Functional Ornamental Dishes by Ariane Prin

This set of dishware by French designer Ariane Prin contains artistic impressions in which dips, dressings, and other condiments could be placed. From the designer: Observe that there are two distinct categories of items: first the simple objects from mass production, and on the other hand the ornamental objects, carved, which show the evidence of an ancestral knowledge. How to reconcile these families of objects while playing with this duality? By taking styles and periods from different origins, I zoomed in ornaments on objects to extract them from their context and apply them to simple forms
