The result was a gorgeous [ceramic collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doux-collection) that sits on the intersection of art and functional design, presenting the modern consumer with dinnerware that doubles as meticulously made decor. The first collection under The Rendevouz is called 'Stripes,' which takes inspiration from 60s design and aims to encapsulate all the moments and memories that take place around the dinner table. As a result, each [eclectic plate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carolina-k) was designed to be mix-and-matched so that the dinnerware is more reminiscent of the unique character of the home.
