Coexistence: Stainless Steel Tray

A Unique Blend of Art and Functionality

Inspired by the concept of balance and inclusiveness, designer Irene Yeung presents the Coexistence stainless steel tray. This stunning piece combines the beauty of nature with the functionality of tableware, creating a truly unique and versatile design.

The Coexistence tray draws its inspiration from the ancient philosophy of "Fictitious & Realistic Coexistence" and "The Sky and Earth Coexist." These concepts highlight the interdependence and complementarity of dualities, such as light and dark, sky and earth. The waving surface of the tray mimics the natural landscape, evoking a sense of harmony and reminiscence of nature's masterpiece.

What sets the Coexistence tray apart is its dual functionality. This set includes two trays, each designed as a landscape shape and art sculpture. The trays are polished to a crisp, mirror finish on the exterior, adding a touch of elegance to any table setting. Individually, each tray can be used for serving fruits, candy, nuts, or even as a jewelry holder. When placed upside-down to each other, the two trays seamlessly combine to form one large tray, perfect for serving larger items or as a centerpiece.

Made from high-quality stainless steel grade SUS316 (SS18/10), the Coexistence tray is not only visually stunning but also durable and long-lasting. The trays are produced using a unique mold, allowing for consistent and precise shaping. The hydraulic press is utilized in the manufacturing process to ensure the trays' perfect form and wall thickness.

The Coexistence tray is a testament to the designer's creativity and the possibilities of production. Overcoming the challenge of creating two trays from one mold required meticulous design and manufacturing processes. The result is a design that seamlessly blends art and functionality, providing a unique and versatile addition to any home.

Recognized for its ingenuity and creativity, the Coexistence tray was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Bakeware, Tableware, Drinkware, and Cookware Design category in 2022. This prestigious award honors designs that exhibit strong technical and creative skills while contributing to quality of life improvements.

Experience the harmony of art and functionality with the Coexistence stainless steel tray. Whether used as tableware or home decor, this design is sure to make a statement in any setting.
