PRODUCTS FOR THE EXHIBITION
Vei - a series of serving objects - Food culture, the food experience, what we serve on has become a large part of the experience we have around a meal. Food is sensory, therefore what it is served on should appeal equally to the senses. The aim of the series Vei is to design a series of serving objects that you immediately want to touch, that are inspiring and that touch. The desire is to create everyday products that give the user an enhanced positive experience. The designer is particularly concerned with how what we surround ourselves with affects us, both physically and more conceptually. This series in porcelain forms a canvas for the food, while the experience of food has influenced the design.
