Palace Stacking Tableware

The Palace Stacking Tableware collection feature sets of dinnerware that form small Florentine-inspired Renaissance homes when stacked. The designer's intention was to create tableware that does not look like tableware when not in use. The result was these porcelain palaces.

Indiscipline by Quentin de Coster

Belgian designer Quentin de Coster has completed a new project called Indiscipline. Porcelain that looks so realistically flexible!


From the designer: 

Indiscipline is a series of porcelain objects which results from the materialization of questions about the boundaries between design and art. Each and everyone unique but originating from the same mould, these ceramics are not functionality-predefined. Deliberately deformed while unmoulding and fortuitous when cooking, this production questions about the usefulness of the object, the influence of a style of production and the limits of the industry. Not unlike personality, these porcelains are the meeting of a predefined mould, voluntary action and…chance.

Cool Dishware

Wasara Paper Dishes
Beautiful disposable paper dishes have curved corners that naturally follow the shape of fingers or thumbs for easy gripping, deliberately designed so that people can hold their plates while they mingle.

Handful Of Plates

Handful Of Plates are creative ceramic plates that are folded like a taco shell. The way they are curved allows you to keep the plate in one hand while eating the food with the other one.

Grooveware
Grooveware is a creative series of three porcelain dishes and an ashtray. The basic forms are generic, except for the fact that each is paired with, and indented by an appropriate utensil.

K-Wine Dishware
The difference between K-wine and a traditional plate with glass holder is that K-wine moves the weight from the side to the middle of the plate. Therefore, even if the glass is full, the weight of the plate is balanced.

Snap And Dine Dishware
Portable lunch setting by talented product designer Demelza Hill.

Benta Plates
Designed by Angela Schwab. The unexpected upward bend functions as a one-handed grip that also prevents spillage.

Modern Porcelain?!!!

When I think of porcelain, the first thing that pops into my mind are those little porcelain figures that almost all typical housewives put on display in their homes. Definitley nothing typical about these though!!! Barnaby Barford's twist on porcelain sculpture is quite surreal. Forget that pretty little girl holding a flower, hell, lets go with a messy family eating KFC or a homeless child enjoying a happy meal!!!
