Brazilian Design at the MoMA Store

The Museum of Modern Art's Design Store has been running regionally-sourced collections in their retails shops and online. Currently they've got an excellent array of products from Korea, and next up they'll be bringing work from Brazil.

 

During a visit to New York last week, I attended a preview of the Brazilian collection, which was absolutely as vibrant and beautiful as you'd expect from a country known for brilliant color and breathtaking natural habitats. I wanted to buy a few of the items on the spot, but I'll be eagerly awaiting their May release.

These cylindrical nesting vases are inspired by the shape of bamboo. Though made from ceramic, the surfaces have a roughness that evokes forests or jungles. They come as a set of three and can be stacked and used as a single vase, or separated and arranged as a trio. Made by hand in Brazil. 5 ½” h x 3 1/3” diam. $80.00
