OFFICE OF USE™










“Use” is the meeting point between people and objects. It’s not just about what something does, but how it invites interaction—the gestures, choices, and experiences that unfold around it. A well-designed object doesn’t only fulfill a function, it also reflects culture and context. The ways people adopt, adapt, or even repurpose objects tell stories about values, habits, and community.

This product was designed in response to a school competition to develop products for the MoMA Design Store. MoMA’s brief was for products that are timeless and sustainable. The Everyday Teapot, through its classic mid-century simplicity and its ceramic materiality, answers this question. It brings a touch of warmth and honest nostalgia to any tea ritual.
