About Eleware Spisestel

Eleware er et spisestel designet til moderne spisning i Kina. Sættet imødekommer den måde, hvorpå traditionel bordskik ændrer sig over tid. Eleware omfatter tre dele med hver deres særegne form. Benfadet har en øget højde, der skjuler ansigtet og benene, når ben spyttes ud. Madfadet har en skrånende bund, der hjælper med at filtrere olie fra maden. Skålen følger den samme kurve som en tekop, så suppe kan nydes ligesom te. Delene er fremstillet af ler og formet ved drejning.

Unique Properties: Because of the globalization, influenced by different cultures, the traditional Chinese dining etiquette is changing through times. Eleware is a set of tableware combining current modern dining culture of China and design together to make dining process more elegant and less embarrassing. It has three innovative shapes- increasing the height of the plate to hide face and bones when spitting out bones, using inclined bottom to help filter out oil on the food and adopting the same curve as teacups to make people enjoy their soup like tea.

Design Challenge: The hardest part of Eleware is the process of evaluation and getting feedback from different users. As different people have different feelings and opinions, it's hard to decide the right suggestions for me. The solution is to ask more questions to find the reasons behind the suggestions and evaluate the shape based on those reasons
Research: Questionnaires, Participants or Experiments, Fly-on-the-Wall Observation, Interview, Prototyping, Photo Studies, Design Ethnography
Inspiration: This project was inspired by the culture and ritual in tableware design and how it's influencing the shape of culinary. As traditional culture and ritual are changing over time, the shape of the tableware should also change to fit the current cultural environment and make dining process less embarrassing.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2017 in China and finished in August 2018 in China
Operation Flow: It has three functions. The bone plate can hide your face and bones when spitting out bones. The food plate can filter out oil by the inclined bottom. The bowl has the same curve as teacups to make people enjoy their soup like tea.
