I know myself and my creative process, so I rarely get stressed,\" he says.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>John Andersson, 24, is in his second year at Ume\u00e5 School of Architecture. He has suspected it before and the Summer eXpression course confirmed his feeling: it is in design that he wants to invest.<\/p>\n<p>- I have travelled a lot and had varied jobs. I have been able to use these experiences in my design, they have given me perspective.<\/p>\n<p>John's designs are often rooted in himself. For example, his interest in food has resulted in \"Don't reach me\" and \"DOT\" as well as Japanese-influenced kitchen knives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Smart interior makes the most of cast iron<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>John developed two products over the summer: 'Don't reach me', a rotating serving platter available in marble or granite, and 'DOT'. And it is the latter that he himself emphasises. The \"DOT\" is a spherical cast-iron spice grinder. The design has such an innovative height that John has now applied for a patent on the product.<\/p>\n<p>- The patent application has been submitted, then we'll see what comes of it. The cast iron itself is the linchpin. It's a heavy material, but instead of trying to change that property, I wanted to find a way to take advantage of it.<\/p>\n<p>The spice grinder is designed to be a design feature rather than a tool in the kitchen. A conversation piece at the dining table, while the clever inner gauge makes it functional.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Design initiative to take advantage of<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After realising that design was something he wanted to pursue, John set up his own company. Now he is looking for a stable partner and producer for \"DOT\" to take the product to the next level.<\/p>\n<p>- I would like to take on new design commissions and hope that the exhibition and the trip to Japan will lead to many new contacts. I am also looking forward to experiencing the Japanese restaurant environment and talking about my design.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The character of the material is allowed to control the form and the properties become part of the function.\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":6724,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[659,655],"tags":[355],"eu-finansiering":[],"artikeltyp":[628],"class_list":["post-7685","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-design","category-summer-expression","tag-john-andersson","search-category-artikel","artikeltyp-nyheter"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
