This wonderful tableware collection is a must-have in your kitchen or coffee tables. We have seen these table pieces before, but what makes this design stand-out are the additional features - they are intuitively designed and conceptualized. Check them out and enjoy!

The Notch collection, inspired by the elegant functionality of Scandinavian design, brings simple solutions to the table. I designed each item to have an additional feature.

Each piece was slip cast, then fired in a matte black and a gloss white to add tactility and contrast to the collection. This collection was a collaboration with Umbra.
