New Developments

Dear Readers,

On Thursday, my manager, designers and I sat down to talk about some new tableware ideas. It seems like the plan is now to move more towards pushing fun mug designs in the near the future. I guess the reason for so is that mugs are much easier to manage in terms of it's supply chain (from raw materials>>> to end consumer) in comparison to a complete dinnerware set. There's always something irritatingly wrong when trying to put together a dinnerware set. I'm not going to go into details why. There are just basically too many bits and bobs in one set.

Moving on. As my manager was in Italy for quite a while two weeks ago, he ended up browsing around Milan, hoping to catch some great finds. And he did.

Meet Taitu: by Emilo Bergamin
(from itlaly)

He is a conceptual tableware designer who believes in a concept that allows consumers to mix and match his collections. They're really fun, well detailed designs. If you look at the below image like a table (chart), then you can see how each design collides with each other.

I'd love to have a couple just to hang on the wall!

What do you think? Shall I have them in our boutique? Maybe check out rest of photos in my flickr album.
