Throughout our lives, classic product designs have been a standard in our routine to the extent that we never questioned the design of a screwdriver, a spoon, a scissor or even a broom! But the design studio PUTPUT is here to make us question our reality! A collaboration between designers Stephan Friedli and Ulrik Martin Larsen, PUTPUT (I truly love how their name is a sound when said out loud!) is the visual and conceptual meeting of two minds. In a simple yet minimal Scandinavian style, this series takes a punny approach, taking objects we use on an everyday basis and convert them into frustrating yet lovable products that are sure to make us smile!
