napkin rings

SIDE BY SIDE is a collaboration of nine different sheltered workshops,

based around Germany, for the intellectually and physically disabled.

their mission: to combine good design with practical, everyday objects

whilst also providing meaningful employment for their charges.

Commissioning the ideas & talent of bright, young designers they have developed a well

resolved range of useful products that epitomise pure simplicity, a pared backed

aesthetic & high quality. their success is to be seen in the beautifully executed result.

winner of both # FORM & DESIGN PLUS prizes, these novel napkin holders do double duty as a place-card: the smart black surface is for writing on! And why stop at names… perhaps menu or quote…? presented as a box of 4; a square of natural sponge & white pencil is part of the package.
