Tord Boontje is a Dutch product designer that I have admired for sometime now. He creates these whimsical pieces that should be exhibited in art galleries rather than the suburban home.
I found one of his earlier works ‘trans glass vessels’ made from recycled wine bottles, this gives a new spin to the 5 cent refund offered by the South Australian government in an effort to keep SA tidy. I thought I would share with you something that is often thrown away and yet here is an example where it can be beautiful and functional, the vessels could be used as vases or water jugs and glasses.
If you are short on gift ideas look no further than your wine rack! Or maybe visit www.tordboontje.com to own an original.
