Restaurant Juuri -project

  • Custom-made plates for awarded Restaurant Juuri, Helsinki. Project executed in a collaboration with Heidi Aulikki Puumalainen.

    Locality, freshness and authenticity are the cornerstones of Ravintola Juuri's kitchen philosophy and through these principles we set out to design plates suitable for the restaurant . The basic idea behind the plates was to emphasize the feel and visuals of a material and techniques. Each plate is handmade and this is especially evident in the glazing, which is unique in each plate. The plates were also locally produced, as our shared studio at the time was located within walking distance of the restaurant.
