The experience of eating is much influenced by our interactions with the tableware on which the food is serve, so perhaps it should come as no surprise that designers would attempt to forger deeper connections between us and our tableware.
Design-maker Ruiqi Yang explores the idea of tableware as an extension of your hand with a collection of porcelain plates which have finger caps attached to their bases. You hold the plates by inserting the correct fingers into the correct caps and there you have it, a plate stuck to your fingers. Unlikely to revolutionise the way we eat perhaps, but fun and thought provoking nevertheless.
Quirky lights are a great way to lighten the spirit. Try the Lampscapes suspension light from Frederik Roije, the Olo table light from Moustache and the Best Before OLED table light from Blackbody.
For quirky tableware try the Machine Collection coffee cup set from Diesel Living, the Bubble Tree plate from Sena Gu and the Bloom centrepiece from Incipit.
