Tiina Hakala took the time to think about how we misuse tables and created an elegant system we want to use. The subtle undulations of Undustrial's Water Wood calmed us as did i29's spare use of wood. We closed the 100% Design Shanghai journal with Tobi's mom, with whom we agree, China, keep and celebrate culture!

Above: Joey Roth is introducing new finishes to the stainless steel Sorapot, starting with this mirror surface. Neither chrome nor nickel-plated, the Sorapot’s stainless steel surface has been polished to a super high sheen.
That teapot is gorgeous! I hope he comes out with other finishes (powder-coating would be so nice)
