01 Froz

Eating is a daily ritual; there is nothing more personal than eating. When people gather to eat, this universal ritual bonds them together. However in this increasingly fast-paced society, ritualistic meals have given way to fast food and takeaway.

Froz is a dessert-making system designed to allow a group of people to create their own desserts. The imagination of the diner is the limit to what can be made. Everyone is encouraged to play an active role in the making and eating of their desserts.

Froz brings conviviality back to the table.

02 Sway

Questioning the definition of luxury brought itself a redefinition: Luxury is getting more than you deserve.

Sway is an electronic wind chime that chimes when a hand is brushed across a remote sensor. It chimes anywhere, even without wind. The luxury of hearing wind chimes chime is now taken out of nature's hands and placed into the individual’s.

Luxury is the access to the inaccessible. It is getting more than you deserve.

03 PotatoPlay

Playing with food is an activity that resonates with every child. Redefining play with food allows adults to relive that playful experience with food.

PotatoPlay is a series of mini potato creations that are made entirely out of potatoes. They are designed to intrigue the senses with their unexpected forms, tastes and textures. Each piece creates a sense of wonderment and excitement as you put them in your mouth.

Relive your play with food; all ages welcome.
