Our June Exhibition is from Office for Product Design, who is a design studio formed in 2007 by Nicol Boyd and Tomas Rosén, who originally began their collaboration while studying at the Royal College of Art in London.

Some of the more interesting details and qualities found in our domestic environments come not from the interior architecture itself or dominating furniture centre pieces, but from smaller, sometimes overlooked items, which have a richer, more personal relevance. Given the social and cultural importance of food in our lives, these items are often found in the kitchen or on the dinner table.

As designers, they have a fascination with the role of these small utilitarian objects.

They like to consider them as an opportunity, not only to address a practical need, but also to act as an important form of visual and emotional punctuation in our daily lives.
Their objective is to create products for the home that embody a quiet confidence, and which reveal flashes of character and thoughtful consideration through use.
They compliment the context in which they are used rather than dominate it, and while they may be ubiquitous, sometimes even unglamourous, they are nonetheless designed to stand up to the closest inspection, while never overtly demanding it.
Over the years they have continually come back to our interest in household objects as a way of refining the details of domestic life.
