Dezeen Space: today Canadian designer Philippe Malouin brings his bowls made of waxed concrete to our micro-exhibition Dezeen Platform at Dezeen Space.
The 1:4 bowls were one of eleven products produced by different designers in response to photographs of a fictional character named Vera, which Dezeen featured in a story earlier this week.
Called Vera, Chapter One, the project was curated by Kirsty Minns and Érika Muller (KM and ÉM) and was presented in a west London basement during the London Design Festival.
Precise measurements were necessary to produce each bowl’s concrete components, similar to the regular cake-baking that Vera’s mother is imagined to have done.
Each day, for 30 days, a different designer will use a one metre by one metre space to exhibit their work at Dezeen Space. See the full lineup for Dezeen Platform here and see all our stories about the work on show here.

Dezeen Platform: today at Dezeen Space, Pia Wüstenberg showcases pieces from her Processed Paper project, a series of products made of recycled paper.
She rolls and twists waste paper into a raw material, then experiments with processes and applications.
“The material can be very delicate and transparent, or equally it can be structural and strong,” she explains. “This depends on the way it is processed in the initial making of the raw material and in the way it is refined in the shape-giving process.”
Pieces at Dezeen Platform include pendant lamps and a folding table where the two wide legs are actually integrated vases.
Wüstenberg is a German-born designer, now working in London after her time in Finland. She graduated from the Royal College of Art this summer – see our story on her Stacking Vessels graduation project here.
Wüstenberg is not alone in tackling the huge quantities of waste paper that modern life generates: Mieke Meijer and Vij5 presented their NewspaperWood project at Ventura Lambrate in Milan this year, Debbie Wijskamp makes pulped paper into blocks then saws them up to build furniture and Jens Praet completed a similar project for Droog in 2008. Greetje van Tiem creates textiles from old newspapers and Aesop have recently launched in New York with a kiosk at Grand Central that’s made from over 1000 copies of the New York Times.
See our top ten stories about paper here.
