Water Tower Pour Over

Form&Seek London Design Fair2017

Form&Seek will be part of Dutch Pavilion at London Design Fair on 21-24 September 2017

Form&Seek exhibitions always show a consideration to new crafts, material and processes.

With this upcoming show Form&Seek explores the theme of "Openness" where we focus on what designers with a vision of across borders and cultures, make and design in order to shift attitudes and cultures for the a more inclusive future. Form&Seek explores the idea of Dutch design, not through a national lens but as an attitude and way of thinking.

For the first time ever Form&Seek launches its own collection during London Design Festival as well as a producing and selling platform, enabling consumers and retailers to purchase original and innovative crafted goods from a curated collection founded and run by designers.

The Form&Seek collection focuses on new developed processes and contemporary, globally local craft techniques. Interesting, innovative materials and processes play a key role in the pieces by Form&Seek. Each item tells a story through the way it has been made or the impact it has on our daily lives.

Our new collection expands on a wide range of crafted products from conventional products prototyped with new technologies to products that play with natural formations and uses of material. Each thought provoking, poetic design object has a strong character and personality with the personal mark of the maker.

Water Tower Pour Over

Created by furniture designer and ceramicist Eny Lee Parker with designer and engineer Levi Brandon Gordy, the Water Tower collection features a pour over coffee assembly which is handcrafted from local, harvested Georgia clay Kaolin. The collection includes a coffee drip, cup, and vase. Via this collection, the duo makes a commentary and reflection on the consumption of water. Through these works, they say "We often travel to gaze into the ocean’s abyss—to get lost in its existence and humble ourselves. Inevitably, when the context changes and we return home, we fail to maintain perspective with the same resource. It is difficult for us to recognize and appreciate beauty in such a seemingly disposable commodity. Evidence of depletion is undeniable.” In this way, the collection serves as a reminder of the voids which prevent us from consciously conserving things that we need most.
