The cocktail party collection addresses a common problem when it comes to casual home and garden parties: falling cutlery. This goes hand in hand with another common difficulty: limited hands. By incorporating a slot for forks and spoons, people will not only drop them less, but also be able to free their hands for other activities.
A collaborative project between Design Milk and Air Circulation, an underground Bushwick gallery, the cocktail party collection was created for Pinch Food Design. Design Milk writes that every season the studio "brings together varied industry trend makers to put new designs on trial before officially launching them into our growing collection of displays." This collection is certainly promising and creative.
