Nendo为Valerie Objects设计的系列餐具
Nendo creates kinked cutlery range for Valerie Objects
“骨架”（Skelton）餐具可以悬挂起来，这套餐具由日本Nendo工作室为比利时品牌Valerie Objects设计。
Nendo工作室的首席设计师Oki Sato设计的这套餐具包括有汤匙、茶匙、叉子和小刀。每一件都通过独特的扭结将把手连接在端部。
Skelton is a sculptural set of cutlery that can be hooked onto tableware, designed by Japanese studio Nendo for Belgian brand Valerie Objects.
Nendo's lead designer Oki Sato created four pieces for the set: a spoon, a teaspoon, a fork and a knife. Each one features a distinctive kink where the handle joins the head.
Sato善用极简设计策略，其设计目的是保留功能的同时尽可能减少材料的消耗。
设计师把这些细长的餐具比作X光片中的骨架。
True to Sato's typically minimal approach to design, the forms are designed to use as little material as possible while still retaining functionality.
The designer likens the slender pieces to a skeleton seen in an X-ray.
由于有着弯曲的手柄，因此这些餐具可以悬挂和储存在厨房周围的各个地方。例如，放置在盘子或碗的边缘，同时茶匙也可以钩在杯子的边缘。
套餐具有不锈钢、也有表面经过物理气相沉积（PVD）处理的涂层，同时设计师也为它们配备了专门的托盘和挂钩进行展示。
Thanks to the range's crooked handles, the pieces can be hooked and stored in various places around the kitchen, for example balanced over the edge of a plate or bowl. The teaspoon can also be hooked onto the rim of the cup.
Available in stainless steel or a black PVD coating, the set comes with a dedicated stand and wall hook for display purposes.
Valerie Objects的联合创始人兼艺术总监Veerle Wenes解释说：“Oki Sato先生渴望加入这个餐具项目，因为他以前从未设计过餐具。但是其设计方式绝对让你满意。”
"Oki Sato was eager to join the cutlery project as he had never designed a cutlery set before," explained Veerle Wenes, co-founder and art director of Valerie Objects. "The outcome will definitely make you smile."
Nendo是国际上最早为Valerie Objects品牌设计餐具的工作室。
Maarten Baas和Koichi Futatsumata是最早将餐具投入生产的两位设计师。Jinhyun Jeon、Muller Van Severen、Simple工作室和Wieki Somers工作室都紧随其后。
Nendo is the latest in a long line of international designers to create a cutlery series for Valerie Objects.
Maarten Baas and Koichi Futatsumata were the first two designers to put cutlery into production with the brand. Jinhyun Jeon, Muller Van Severen, Studio Simple and Studio Wieki Somers all followed.
Wenes在谈到更多的餐具时候：“当我接触到为Valerie Objects设计餐具的设计师和设计团队时，我知道他们每个人都会通过不同的专业知识来进行多方向思考。”
“他们之中的一些人已经设计过餐具，另一些人多年来一直对餐具的设计很感兴趣，对他们来说，这是他们第一次尝试设计这种朴素的作品。但是不管他们处于什么阶段，他们都成功地让我们感受到惊喜。”
"When I approached the designers and design teams to create a set of cutlery for Valerie Objects, I knew that they would each use their expertise, background and knowledge to come up with a completely divergent range of results," said Wenes, speaking about the wider collection.
"Some of them had already experimented with cutlery, others had been fascinated by the design [of cutlery] for years, while for yet others it was their first foray into designing this modest eating tool. But whatever stage they were at, they all succeeded in delivering a surprise."
Wenes是比利时安特卫普Valerie Traan画廊的创始人，同时，他还与家庭用品品牌Serax的首席执行官Axel Van Den Bossche共同创立了Valerie Objects。
除餐具外，这个安特卫普的品牌此前还推出了一家由比利时Robbrecht en Daem工作室打造的木偶剧院，此外还有一堆五颜六色的餐盘，以及比利时Muller Van Severen工作室设计的三角形雕塑。
Wenes, who also owns Valerie Traan Gallery in Antwerp, co-founded Valerie Objects with Axel Van Den Bossche, CEO of homeware brand Serax.
As well as cutlery, the Antwerp-based brand has previously launched a sombre puppet theatre by Belgian studio Robbrecht en Daem, and a stack of colourful food-serving platters and a sculptural trivet by Belgian design duo Muller Van Severen.
