Every Pet Eats Set

by Areaware

Is the Every Pet Eats Set really for your pet? Or is it actually for you? Because when you think about it, the pleasing shape of the bowl's rolled rim, its ceramic glossiness, and its satisfying primary color palette will probably be lost on your furry friend. And will they appreciate how the silicone, no-slip mat translates to less mess? Most likely not—but you will.

Pluma Stool

by Steven Bukowski

The Pluma Stool is a fresh take on the classic milking stool, updated with a curvy and modern shape. It comes flat-packed, and the hardware is built-in, so assembly is a breeze. Use it as an extra place to sit, a side table, or a plant stand.

Stacking Planter

by Chen Chen and Kai Williams

The Stacking Planter discretely integrates both a planter and saucer into one form. Lift out the bottom ring to reveal a hidden saucer. The circular stoneware form takes its inspiration from high voltage ceramic insulators found on power lines.

Doodle Crayons

by Nikolas Bentel

Doodle Crayons ask you to consider how you make art, rather than what you make. Move them this way and that, pull them along on their sides, or push them around flat. Doodle and scribble mindfully or mindlessly to create your own messy musings.

Wall Clocks

by Pat Kim

Through three-dimensional, abstract shapes, this clock offers a way to visualize the passing of time in a playful way. Each hour is relatively represented by a sphere, cylinder, cube and bell. Place it wherever you need a gentle reminder to take time less seriously.
