A set of sculptural nesting trivets, designed with efficiency in mind. Inspired by the looping shapes of freeway systems and the infrastructure of transportation, the VSBY Trivet is a take on the classic cast-iron model. Working within this language, we set out to create a visually compelling form that, while built for 3D printing, remains familiar.
The relationship between the feet and tracks of the trivet is inherently architectural; they act as piers supporting the deck of a bridge. The trivets can be used alone for small and medium items, or together for larger items.
Designed in collaboration with Sina Sohrab.
