| DESIGN NAME: Pit Stop PRIMARY FUNCTION: Table Pepper Mill/Shaker INSPIRATION: Inspired by a fascination for 1950s Science Fiction and classic sports cars. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: These grinders stand inverted on a tumbler base which is also the reservoir for the peppercorns. This stops loose grindings soiling tables and creating mess. The pepper is ground into a stainless steel ‘bulb’ from which it can be shaken over food therefore combining the benefits of freshly ground condiment with the accurate dispensing of a shaker. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The form of the grinder makes a visually interesting table feature. The construction utilizes existing technologies and high quality materials. The ergonomics make the grinder pleasing to handle with the polyamide grip having a soft touch finish. The design has a deliberate ‘retro’ feel that looks back to shapes and forms from a past era but utilizes contemporary materials. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The design concept was started in August and completed in October 2011. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Food, Beverage and Culinary Arts Design |
