" It's used for ?
», we say when we come across for the first time the funny object signed by designer Thomas Defour.
If he were in front of us, the designer born in 1992 would simply answer: “It’s a salt and pepper mill”.
Available in different formats, in turned wood, evoking the pieces of a construction game crowned with colored metal, its small domestic totems are both beautiful and functional.
In short, a summary of what design should bring to the home: combining use and aesthetics.
It was 13 Desserts, a design publishing house based in Hyères, which bet on these mills.
We therefore thank her and salute her ability to shake up the classics and bring joy to everyday life.
A boldness and positive energy that Made in Design spotted.
The designer showcase thus highlights the 13 Desserts collections, online, but also in a pop-up store installed at Printemps de la Maison in Paris where we will discover, until February 18, five exclusive versions of the mills by Thomas Defour as well as his Grand Ribaud armchair in a unique finish, his Crotto 2 shelf, his Magaud mirror, his Topless chairs in pink and chalk and other pieces signed by emerging names to remember: Clément Rougelot and his Canebas table and Sophia Taillet and her Venus lamp, which has just joined the Mobilier National.
