breakfast

Designed by Niklas Hessman | Country: Sweden

“A kind of taste pack for oatmeal. This package contains the right amount of oatmeal with added sugar and salt. You break your BREAK FAST pack over a bowl, add water and cook in the microwave. Then you can tentatively serve with cold milk. The idea is to target a new audience that otherwise would not eat oatmeal, but also to those who are usually in a hurry in the morning and tend to skip today’s most important meal, breakfast. Break it fast and have a BREAK FAST!”

beautiful concrete espresso maker, designed by shmuel linski from Shenkar College of Engineering and Design, Israel.

“The design process begun in choosing the material: I chose concrete. I had a vision: concrete in the kitchen, not only as a wall or decorative part, I wanted it to be a desirable consumer product.”

Sebastian Errazuriz

“We are fucking angry”

Sebastian Errazuriz’s newest work comes in the form of this little beauty, simple, yet creative and effective, its an artistic protest towards the b.p oil spill in april.

“It would be great if people at home could replicate the design and make their own improvised oil grenades to express their anger at BP.”

Originally from Chile, but now lives in New York. He strives to create works that push thinking, obsessed
by the dichotomies of life and death and it shows in his work.
