Architect and designer Vido Nori presented a first household collection at the London Design Festival. For these square dishes , concrete was chosen as an unconventional material, even though it is one of the world's most widely used building materials. Fans of Bauhaus-inspired geometry will probably be excited by the result.
Square Tableware Creates Geometric Effects
A building material made by binding cement, water, aggregates and additives is probably not the first thing that comes to mind when we think about food. But the square concrete tableware could become the perfect focal point at your next party.
Concrete as a surprising material for tableware
The play with geometry underlines the robustness and rigor of the material. Numerous corners and edges create a relief-like landscape. As expected, the concrete plates and bowls are very stable. The dishes are also dishwasher-safe, but they can be cleaned easily with warm water and a little detergent.
Distinctive tableware designs
Vido Nori, an architect by profession and a passionate cook in her free time, was inspired by the Bauhaus for these creations. In addition to asymmetric seats made from different types of wood, Nori designs other objects that stand apart from mass-produced goods. The designer describes the household goods as "funky and funny."
