The Design

About Eleware Conjunto de Louça de Mesa

Eleware é um conjunto de louça de mesa concebido para a refeição moderna na China. O conjunto responde à forma como a etiqueta tradicional à mesa se tem transformado ao longo do tempo. Eleware inclui três peças com formas distintas. O prato para ossos tem uma altura maior, que oculta o rosto e os ossos no momento em que estes são cuspidos. O prato de comida possui um fundo inclinado que ajuda a filtrar o óleo dos alimentos. A tigela segue a mesma curvatura de uma chávena de chá, permitindo que a sopa seja apreciada como se fosse chá. As peças são feitas em argila e modeladas em torno de oleiro.

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.
