Marie-Louise made her first prototype for the SHOPPING basket out of crochet tablecloths in her studio for an exibition called "Tokyo Style" in Stockholm in 2004. The theme was "fika" (Swedish word for coffee break) meets Japanes "tea time". She chose an ornate material because it reminds her of her grandmother, who always baked seven different types of cookies for fika and served them on her finest crochet tablecloths. The basket is therefore both functional and emotional and if you turn the basket upside down you get a table that looks like it is covered with a sweet crochet tablecloth.
Educated at the Royal College of Art in London, Marie-Louise has a MA Degree in product design. |
