The New York Bowl is inspired by the centuries-old urban structure of Manhattan. Its distinctive grid of streets and blocks creates a fascinating geographical pattern, an iconic structure that reflects the unique character of the city.
Fascinated by the beauty, complexity and identity of urban landscapes, Frederik Roijé translates his favorite cities and some of the world’s most remarkable and important metropolises into design objects. He captures their distinctive structures and brings them to scale both literally and figuratively.
The New York Bowl is crafted from cast aluminium by skilled local craftsmen in the Netherlands.
