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

NeoCon 2010: Day 1

My first day in Chicago for NeoCon was overwhelming to say the least. Despite the terrible phone reception, slow Internet and lack of elevators, I think I accomplished quite a bit my first day. I was only there for two days, so I tried to squeeze in as much as possible. One thing I definitely will need to know from you, readers, is whether you are in the contract business (I sense a poll coming on…) I hope you’re sitting down, this one is a long one
