Polspotten
While following the game of adulting with rules written by someone else, ironically some might forget the magic of play. Play is essential for human development - it gives rise to imagination and fuels creativity. We're here to Add Play To Space — playfulness is our higher purpose, and it's something that we strive for both in our products and our personal lives. And at the same time, we acknowledge that we also need to have as little impact on the environment as possible.

It's the kind of vessel that makes you feel slightly more interesting just by displaying it, which, in my experience, is half the battle of home décor.

This isn't your run-of-the-mill vase—it's a conversation starter that happens to hold flowers. Each piece emerges from a wooden mold, mouth-blown by artisans we befriended during our wanderings through China two decades ago. The magic unfolds through controlled chaos: a plunge into ice water, a stint in a roaring oven, and suddenly you've got those signature cracks that make it look perpetually on the verge of shattering.

Crafted from partly glazed stoneware, the Chubby Side Table is a study in contrasts: smooth surfaces give way to rough textures, creating a tactile experience that makes you want to run your hands across it repeatedly.

But honestly, who needs another ordinary surface when you can have this?
Melting Mirror
This isn't your grandmother's mirror—it's a gentle rebellion against the tyranny of flawlessness. The Melting Mirror, rendered in warm beige, celebrates the beautifully imperfect you. It questions our culture's relentless pursuit of correction and polish, inviting you instead to embrace your delightfully surreal, wonderfully weird self. Because let's face it, normal is overrated anyway.
