Landscaped Tableware and Beakers

Designer: Lisa-Dionne Morris

Department: Design Products

Joint second prize in the Age category

This range of temperature-retaining earthenware and plastic tableware is aimed at young and old people recovering from a stroke. It has been deliberately 'landscaped' to assist individuals who have suffered from perceptual and cognitive impairment following a stroke, to navigate around a table setting, enabling them to accomplish the task of eating and drinking independently. The tableware is capable of keeping its contents at a constant positive or negative temperature for up to 40 minutes. It is accompanied by a range of toughened light and heavy weight glass beakers which have a distinctly shaped surface for security and comfort when held. These glasses are also ideal for small children who have difficulty holding objects.
