Melts like Butter

COLLECTIBLE COLLECTION | DESIGN YEAR 2025 | REPRESENTED BY GALERIA PHILIA

Our concept draws a parallel between traditional butter making and contemporary design: both transform raw elements into something greater. Through time, care, and refinement, simple materials evolve into purposeful, enriching creations. Just as butter making depends on rhythm, patience, and intuition, design shapes ideas and materials into forms that enhance daily life, connection, and experience. This project honours tradition while embracing innovation, demonstrating how craft and technology together create meaningful design for today and tomorrow.

Through this concept, we celebrate the tactile, sensory, and emotional power of creation, where the essence of making, whether butter or design, melts seamlessly into something greater than the sum of its parts. Solid wood covered with micro ceramic plaster, “butter like” soft finish. Available in 4 colours.
