Foil Balloon Inspired Fruit Bowl : Hollowware

At first glance, you may be forgiven if you mistook the picture below for a somewhat dented child’s foil balloon. But it is actually an inflatable metallic plastic foil fruit bowl called Hollowware designed by Kim Buck of Denmark. He is actually a goldsmith and he took the term “hollowware” from the term used for metal tableware such as containers. His unique inflatable tableware not only functional but humorous as well!


It was one of 12 Danish designs recently presented as “MindCraft” at the 100% Design London Exhibition by the Danish Crafts Organisation.
