Topoware

Topoware is a tableware collection that questions the landscape of dining. Taking inspiration from the recent popularity of geography as a media of communication (with Google maps) and more specifically with topographic maps, which define heights of a landscape two dimensionally. Topoware in turn, "outlines" the dining experience. The set consists of:
1. Bowl (12.5cm diameter) with the lines "very hungry", "hungry" and "full"
2. Serving dish (20cm diameter) with the lines "father", "mother" and "child"
3. Large plate (27cm diameter) with the lines "greedy", "moderate", "modest"

Designed by Alexandra Deschamps-Sonsino

SomethingLabs

SomethingLabs is a hothouse in London for creatives that use technology as part of their practice. Within this shared studio space are like minded people, each working on their own and sometimes swap skills on collaborative projects. We aim to build the space into a community, rather than simple desk rental, and plan to run a series of workshops and a group exhibition.
