They designed a tray set that allows the concrete to seem soft and malleable through curvatures and round edges, creating an interaction of concrete with a metal ball. The collection of objects includes trays and dishes, vases and containers. The main body is matte and rough to show the characteristic of concrete. The metal part is glossy and smooth to create a big contrast in these objects.
They created also playful story to describe the interaction of the metal ball and the concrete.
