A Touch of Class in the Kitchen Zone

Having only properly discovered this company in the past year it's safe to say I'm sold.

JosephJoseph are a twin brother co-founded and run outfit from the UK specialising in bespoke, innovative kitchen and cookware products. Being of a product design background myself this type of company tends to stand out from the proverbial crowd for me regardless, but I really enjoy the work these guys produce.

Obviously all of a modern aesthetic their products can really elevate the look of a kitchen or dining experience. More importantly each product has its own USP, either improving a method or setting about it in an innovative and stylish manner. Combined these accomplish the two most basic requirements for a successful piece of product design. Throw into the mix a good, well trained business head and you've filled the caldron with all the required controllable aspects you need to sell products......No surprise then that Antony Joseph is a Product Design Graduate from St Martins and Richard Joseph a Business Graduate from Cambridge!

Form and Function rule the product design world supreme!

Some examples of their work can be seen below, a few of my favorite items from the JosephJoseph ranges.
Scales

Measuring Cups x 8 

Chopping Boards Set 

 Pizza Slicer

 Utensils

 Y-Grinder: S+P

 Salad Bowls + Serving Forks
If you aren't shy to giving kitchen based gifts, and have outgrown the old fashioned suggestion that such items mean the recipient should be spending more time in the kitchen.....then these should be creeping into Christmas lists for one and all. If anything these products bring rays of light into what some people consider to be mundane tasks!

The Y-Grinder is my favorite incase anyone's feeling generous ;)
