Concrete Tableware

Developed by Alessia Giardino, Concrete Tableware is a modular and multifunctional collection of decorative centerpieces achieved by stretching concrete to the limit.

Concrete Tableware is a modular and multifunctional collection of decorative centerpieces, that can be used as decoration for the table, or the wall, when they are put back on the shelf.

Conceived as chopping boards, trivets, or trays, to serve food onto, the tile-look is a semiotic and visual reference to the material adopted: concrete.

The decoration of each piece is uniquely achieved by stretching the material to the limit. Marbled, brushed, and washed away, it is contemplated as drawing inks while haptic quality are defined exploring the relationship between food texture, colors and consistency, and the tableware that is accommodating it.
