cake of peace is no piece of cake, although it may ensconce one very nicely.
about a year ago, whilst bumming around amsterdam with my crew, we had the pleasure of venturing through the dutch design shop frozen fountain. a moss-like store, albeit without the slickness of the greene street temple, frozen fountain delivers. a host of modern makers based in the netherlands can be found at this prisengracht institution - a perfect locale, canal-side, for those of us venturing towards werck for lunch, anne frank house, or kitsch kitchen for the mexican-inspired funk.
studio job is well represented at frozen fountain. their bisque collection of art pieces/homewares are both timely and exquisitely crafted. based on tongue-in-chic interpretations of more stoic themes, while relishing clever play on words, the items are really an example of northern european ingenuity (with a presence in both holland and belgium, which, given the current political crisis, may soon be wed!).
i suppose their work is appropriate at any point in history, not just this one. given man's propensity for war, coupled with the natural human desire to eat sweets, cake of peace really whets the appetite.
available through unica home and moss in the unites states.
