Today at Dezeen Platform: Philippe Malouin
Dezeen Platform: today Canadian designer Philippe Malouin brings his bowls made of waxed concrete to our micro-exhibition Dezeen Platform at Dezeen Space.
The 1:4 bowls were one of eleven products produced by different designers in response to photographs of a fictional character named Vera, which Dezeen featured in a story earlier this week.
Called Vera, Chapter One, the project was curated by Kirsty Minns and Érika Muller (KM and ÉM) and was presented in a west London basement during the London Design Festival.
Precise measurements were necessary to produce each bowl's concrete components, similar to the regular cake-baking that Vera's mother is imagined to have done.
Each day, for 30 days, a different designer will use a one metre by one metre space to exhibit their work at Dezeen Space. See the full lineup for Dezeen Platform here and see all our stories about the work on show here.
