Rethinking the everyday
A familiar shape reinterpreted—and from it emerges an entirely new function: Konstantin Grcic takes up the archetypal silhouette of an everyday object: the funnel. Turned upside down, it becomes an oil container. A perspective shift that is as simple as it is sophisticated, a subtle interplay between memory and function that enriches the table with understated elegance. The composition of clear geometric forms transforms stainless steel into everyday beauty.
The diagonally cut spout ensures precise pouring, while the integrated drip-retention system preserves the clarity of the form and at the same time guarantees optimal storage of the oil. This oil container combines the formal precision, intellectual clarity, and subtle humor that characterize Konstantin Grcic’s work.
Konstantin Grcic
Born in Munich in 1965, he first trained as a cabinetmaker before studying at the Royal College of Art in London. In 1991, he founded his studio, which is now based in Berlin. His work encompasses product design, exhibition projects, and collaborations with the worlds of fashion and architecture. His work is represented in the most important museums worldwide. As a member of the Academies of Arts in Berlin and Munich, he has received numerous international awards.
Since the beginning of his career, Konstantin Grcic has naturally found his place in the bauhaus-shop.de range.
His design approach—with usability and functionality at the forefront—is a perfect fit for the Bauhaus philosophy. The structural clarity of his products and their constructive rigor embody the movement’s historical values and make his designs indispensable pieces in our range.
