The Portafrutta, created by 35 individual forms was designed to be a fruit plate rather than a fruit bowl. The horizontal surfaces of the tray with its divided sections suggest and allow different fruit to be placed strategically around the tray. This avoids the bruising of fruit which often occours when pieces of fruit are piled on top of each other in a bowl. Each piece of fruit has it’s seperate space, giving the fruit the importance it deserves.

Made in cherry wood the tray is realized with laser cutting technology.

On a visit to the European florist competition in Brussels we spoke to some of the winning flower decorating artist and told them we worked in the field of product design.

Almost immediately the complaints started about the fact that all flower vases were the same, the only differences were that every season they had different prints on them.
The florists challenged us to make some designs for flowers which enabled them and all other people to "play" more with flowers. This was the start of the Studio Mango vase collection which is now sold in over 60 countries in the world and ever expanded.
