Fusion of design and catering industries

Eight designers and eight chefs collaborated as a pair to attain unique products that can be used in restaurants. The designers were inspired by the chefs and vice versa.

Point of departure for the project was the added value that creative industries can bring to other sectors of industry - in this case, to top-class restaurants. Design solutions were explored for situations that both the staff and the restaurants have to cope with in their daily work.

Joost van Bleiswijk / Serving Plate XC

Not a single screw or a drop of glue were used in the No Screw No Glue series of furniture. Designer Joost van Bleiswijk embroidered on this concept and designed a serving dish for Restaurant Zuid, which inspired top chef Michiel Verbakel to serve a dish that was built up according to the same principles as No Screw No Glue.
