Karen

The ABS Plast is designed by Erik Magnussen and is fresh for 2012. It comes in three colours (all of which are featured here; aqua, azur and smoke) and the best news about it is that they fit with Brita’s water filters.  So why not start the year with the best looking water jug around.

Red Dot Design Award Winner 2011

Karen

With over 4,000 entries from 40 countries, the annual red dot design award ranks among the largest design competitions worldwide. The competition is divided into two sections – product design and communication design – which are staged and adjudicated separately. The coveted trophy in both is the red dot, the international seal of quality for outstanding design. The award winning products are displayed online and published in a yearbook.

We can see why today’s item won the 2011 Red Dot Design Award. It’s a kitchen item with a twist… The Callista lemon squeezer is a new product from Blomus, now available at Dennis and McGregor. Blomus products have a knack for being artistic and modern, yet affordable. The designers drew their inspiration for the item from the natural world. This stainless steel Callista squeezer will make lemon squeezing a breeze, saving you time in the kitchen and giving you more time to relax at home

Music is a very colorful thread woven into the entire fabric of our lives.  The importance of music is a greater part of life; which harmony receives soothing sound of gentleness. The success of music generates entertainment through music. Movement, of self motivation alerts the body, mind and soul to a higher level. The importance of music in human lives can produce gratitude, heal stress with a stimulation of entertainment for one to be successful at his best.” Joyce Phillips

Höganäs Keramik- We believe in the beauty

Karen

A small tongue of land violates the dark waves of the sound.  Here is a special place.   Many have made a pilgrimage here. Few places on earth is so generous.  There are huge rocks at the side of the real fairy tale forests, beaches that have attracted envy of many Italians, and especially all the good things from the earth and the animals and the seasons.

Artists have fallen in love with the light, where the sea meets the sea.  Cafes and hotels have seen both simple and royal guests.  Women and men have sea bathed together, when one wishes only dared dream of such sins.  And the flavors and fragrances have pleased the most discriminating of palates.  In the middle of beautiful Kullabygden, Höganäs Keramik originated.

We believe in the beauty.  A boldly shaped jug, a mug that is lovely to hold, or a colorful bowl you just can not take your eyes off.  Already our first glaze master let the love of Kullabygden seen in both jars and barrels.

The material was captured Earth, satisfaction of the meal and atmosphere. 
Even today, burning of Höganäs Ceramics for the natural beauty.  Simple everyday items of stoneware designed with dedication, passion and creativity. And experience, of course.  The basic idea has always been the same: a strong belief in Swedish design, where color, form and function go hand in hand.

You can see it when you believe in the beauty.

Höganäs Ceramics

Available Soon from Dennis and Mcgregor.
