Fine dining and plastic utensils don't often fall into the same sentence but Demelza Hill wants to change that. The British product designer, whose works seeks to shine a different light on everyday products, created Snap and Dine, which approximates the traditional three-course meal using an interconnected mold of disposable plastic plates and cutlery.

Easy to use, the meal setting comes in a single, transportable format. The plate and utensils have the decorative flourishes traditionally reserved for fine china so that the user can then add a touch of class and elegance to the low-key occasion of a picnic or bag lunch.

by Laura Neilson For all the devoted bibliophiles who refuse to save their page by dog-earing their favorite pieces of literature, this startling bookmark instead applies a faux drip of liquid making for a cheeky alternative. It's designed by Kouichi Okamoto of Kyouei Design, the same company that brought us the cleverly-conceived umbrella pot last spring and that's known for their inventive lighting systems. Just...
Like-it Recycle Dust Station
If you're the type of person who gets a rush out of visiting The Container Store, then listen up.
