Name: Tea Cup Collage
Brand: Serax

Giel Dedeurwaerder and Brent Neve studied the possibilities of wood for their designs. They also investigated the food safety aspect of wood, thus getting the idea for a tea service. The tasks were divided up in no time: while one designer focused on the design, the other went in search of the most food-safe finish for the wood. Together with the Serax technical team, they also looked for alternative industrial production techniques.

Inspired by Japanese designs, Giel and Brent created cups made of solid acacia wood. And this feature has been awarded the Henry Van de Velde Award 2019 in the Habitat category.
