Mormor Tableware by Gry Fager
(11 September 2009) - An intelligent riff on kitchen textiles, Gry Fager's Mormor collection of tableware for Normann Copenhagen combines modern form and traditional pattern with the most gratifying results. Mormor's distinct patterns—a graphic interpretation of the typical blue and white tea towel and a textural nod to the classic dish cloth—grace a variety of dining objects such as bowls, cups, platters, plates and decanters. The collection manages...

Alessi Fall/Winter 2009
(25 August 2009) - During last week's New York International Gift Fair Alessi debuted roughly 200 new products and expanded families across the company's three brand divisions. Choosing favorites isn't easy, but check out a few selects below. Gabriele Chiave's "Apostrophe" orange peeler (above) reminds us of what Alessi does best. Designed as part of their LPWK series, the sculptural form lends artistic life to the most prosaic...

(27 May 2008) - The Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola has been taking the design world by storm in recent years.

Hidebumi Yamaguchi: IMAnoWa
(19 April 2008) - With all the press and buyers swarming around Milan's Salone del Mobile, I was so happy to wander into a seemingly inauspicious exhibition called "Shapes of Japanese Style." The group show was tucked into the gallery's basement and, like many exhibits of its kind, felt a little thin. That was until my eyes landed on Hidebumi Yamaguchi's IMAnoWa collection. The concept, to encourage users...

Crackery Tableware
(05 March 2008) - A sad fate awaits cracked china. With no real value on the secondhand market, most is relegated to the garbage. That is, unless Brazilian/Israeli designer Joana Meroz gets a hold of it. Based in the Netherlands, Meroz reclaims broken cups and dishes, which she transforms into her Crackery Tableware line for the Ornamented Life. Instead of trashing them, she chooses to "celebrate their imperfections"...

AZEdesign Messy Tablecloth
(24 August 2007) - A response to the dying tradition of home-cooked meals, Polish firm AZEdesign's Messy Tablecloth embraces the drips, spills and general lack of orderliness that's naturally a part of sitting down to eat. By outlining the disarray on the fabric with embroidery thread, they create a "pattern of situation," complete with thread loops of wine spilling off the edge. (Click image for detail.) Unfortunately, it...

Ineke Hans Bowls
(25 May 2006) - If you're anything like me, eating breakfast doesn't stop you checking your email, answering your phone, and changing the T.V. channel all at the same time. These multi-task enabling soup/cereal bowls by Dutch designer Ineke Hans are ideal. They come with a built-in handle and a spoon that hooks snugly on top, making it a bit easier to free up up one hand if...
