Food Time is a set of tableware and eating utensils for children of all ages. The seven objects can be used separately but also in interaction with each other. They allow the child to playfully learn how to use them correctly and can be used for a long time because the design foregoes children’s décors. One of the key design features is the curved bottom, which forms a groove for the matching spoon. This way, food can easily be scooped out. The use of materials with a high tactile and visual quality, such as coloured porcelain, wood and mouth-blown glass shall train children’s senses to be aware of the physical properties of a material.
