CASSIOPEA TABLE 2008 

 The Cassiopeia is a large glass topped dining table with cold rolled aluminium legs and bevelled edges. The dramatic sculptural base is formed from three laser cut cold-rolled aluminium pieces braced together in a structure reminiscent of elliptical orbital patterns.

The Dpsnp salt and pepper set is a product worthy of a double take, engaging the viewer and forcing them to rationalise what they are seeing; ‘is it, isn’t it?’. The glazed Royal Winton creamware base houses two hollowed vibrators modified to allow salt and pepper to flow from holes in the caps. Each base is hand finished to be individual, just as nature intended.

The Skase teacup set is based on the idea of symbiosis. A close, prolonged association between two or more different organisms of different species that may, but does not necessarily, benefit each member. The Skase is a cup and saucer for the post-modern world. The cup is made from white glazed creamware and is freed from the usual convention of requiring a flat base. It has a pleasingly tactile pointed shape and sits upon a cross base made from Manchurian walnut.
