Design Porn: Topoware

Has anyone been watching the BBC4 show on ceramics? It's fascinating. It also goes some way to explaining my obsession with plates and cups. As functional as they are beautiful, there is no other piece of design that pinpoints a time in history or society as accurately - whether it's traditional blue and white china, or something a little more quirky like Topoware.

This is such a cute range, and feels like it's inspired by Goldilocks and the Three Bears. You just get to decide if you're full, hungry, or very very hungry.

I'm writing this six hours after lunch. I'm definitely very, very hungry. But I might be modest, moderate or greedy! There's even a very for father, mother and child (see? totally inspired by those porridge-loving bears).

It's a beautiful range, available at Bouf. Now you just need to decide how hungry you are and how much tea you want tonight.
