Inspired by traditional Japanese plates, Closer is a plate designed for left and right handed people to encourage them to start conversations and become closer both physically and mentally.

Designed by Marco A. Guadarrama, Closer promoted freedom and redefines the eating space that we use by literally putting the table in your hands.

Jaime Derringer, Founder + Executive Editor of Design Milk, is a Jersey girl living the laid back life in SoCal. She dreams about architectural jewelry + having enough free time to enjoy some of her favorite things—running, reading, and drawing.
