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.
Is it a bar of soap or a paperweight? Well, neither. It's a silicone block to hold notes or business cards.
Designed for the urban commuter, this all-conditions sneaker's sleek technical silhouette was inspired by the brown paper bag.
A watch that highlights the beauty of wood with its three-dimensional concave face paired with a vegetable-tanned leather strap.
