Graduating at the Design Academy Eindhoven, Jinhyun Jeon‘s MA thesis project Tableware as Sensorial Stimuli developed some quite fantastic looking cutlery. Exploring the relationship between food and the senses, Jeon developed his designs to “make us focus on each bite, feel the enriched textures or enhanced chewing sounds between bites.” Utilising bumps, texture, colour and shape, hopefully the unique tableware will soon be available to buy, or at least experience in handpicked restaurants.
