Friederike Deilius of Studio Berg, a recent graduate of the Berlin University of the Arts, is our kind of designer; interested in transforming the look and feel of everyday utilitarian household items. Case in point: her senior project, Foldwork, a brass folding drying rack. It's a prototype, but we hope it goes into production soon.
