Where do design, supper clubs and the avant-garde intersect? How does design engage food politics? Who will start the next food trend? Is there a different way to eat? What can a change in presentation do? How can the dining experience be amplified? What would a restaurant designed by the games Exquisite Corpse and Telephone be like?
Dine on Design, Spring 2008
Two shows, two cities: Brooklyn and Singapore
Dine on Design is looking for creative design relating to food, from dish and glassware, to seating and lighting, costumes and uniforms, linens and graphics. There is even a place for video and performance!
The selected pieces will provide the inspiration for the chef’s prix fixe menu.
The food will be served on the selected dishes and the diners will sit on the selected furniture! The pieces will be for sale at the designers’ discretion. This is a forum for unique ideas, an opportunity to experience new and limited edition work celebrating dining culture!
Call for entries by October 1, 2007
Dine on Design is committed to the experience of dining through design. Emerging, limited edition, and experimental designs will go beyond the traditional static exhibition. Food and cuisine are at the heart of cultural dialogue and global exchange, as well as being design of a more temporal sort. By pairing dining and design in short-lived gastronomic events designers, artists, chefs and performers are able to present new and event specific work in a dynamic setting.
