Designing construction techniques can have surprisingly interesting results that are more fun and random than simply designing objects’ shapes. With this in mind, Vancouver-based Jerusalem-born Omer Arbel created a series of experimental recycled copper containers with unexpected shapes and named them 19.0. Using leftover copper, a by product of the overspill generated by the sand casting technique, the designer could create unusually shaped bowls using what otherwise would go to waste.
