ART AURE

In their London-based Absolute Appetite design studio, founded in 2001, Ingrid Rügemer and Oliver Szasz create items for daily use that add surprising sensations, emotions and enjoyment to our lives. Their latest product line called Seda (Spanish for ‘silk’) is made from bone china, the most exquisite of all porcelains. Originally from Augsburg, Germany, these two designers first shape most of their models from gypsum, also using CAD programs during the conception stage. The finished designs for their objects are then entrusted for implementation to experienced craftspeople, chosen specifically for each project. With their classic “folds”, the hand-signed Seda bowls, candle holders and vases look like cultural objects made for eternity.
