Drawing inspiration from the classic, shiny drainpipes of Copenhagen architecture, the Pipe Pitcher interprets the classic tableware object in a straightforward, cylindrical shape. Pipe consists of a cylinder which slightly narrows at the neck, providing an elegant, functional spout, while a practical handle makes the pitcher easy to hold when pouring.

Designer Simon Legald was inspired by the way drainpipes are designed to lead water in the most efficient way. Since the fundamental function of a pitcher is to lead water, the design uses the same principles of drainpipes, narrowing at the sprout to create and ideal flow for whichever beverage it contains.

The stainless steel pitcher features a high-polish surface treatment, making it an eye-catching element in any table setting. Pipe Pitcher can contain 1,2 liters of any desirable beverage.

Simon Legald graduated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in the summer of 2012. His work consists of both small- and large scale products. Simon's designs are often created in a dialogue between craftsmanship and industry. He also likes to incorporate the techniques that are necessary for the structure of a product into the design by highlighting them visually.

"Honesty is what makes a product understandable and is what describes the products functionality. If you understand the product, it does not need any explanation. The essence of my design is for it to be bought and used. Therefore, it has to satisfy not only the functional aspects, but also the psychological and aesthetic needs. For me simplicity describes the true identity of objects and makes them trustworthy. In my design, I try not to add any unnecessary details. I work with simplicity by highlighting the necessities instead of hiding them. It gives the product a simple and honest expression."
