Soop is a multi-disciplinary design company, designing products for the home and commercial environment, from tableware to small items of furniture. Some of the following plates are presently in production and available at various design stores or directly from Soop. Others are looking for production and distribution. All of them are imaginative and fun.

Plate is for Pea (earthenware with pea trick booklet, presently in production):



Above: A plate that actually encourages you to play with your food. Attempt tricks from the accompanying booklet and score as many points by flicking, rolling or even spitting peas into the numbered dimples.

Pretty Nasty (bone china, presently in production):






Above: A series of decorative plates with pretty floral patterns that, on closer inspection, are made up of nasty houseflies, beetles, slugs and snails.

Ready Meals (earthenware, in production):



Above: Ready Meals are seven 10" dinner plate designs, one for everyday of the week, with mix and match recipes (e.g. chips, beans and sausages, beans on toast etc). All you need to do is prepare, cook and place your food on the right outline to serve up a diner's delight.

Look What I Found! Cloned Eye lamps, The Patriot Pin, All in One plates, Cornerframes & The Pick Chair


Cloned Eyeball Lamps:

Lamps based on your eye color. You fill out the form, attach photos of your eyes, and voila! Eyeball lamps based on your own peepers.

(click on the images below to enlarge for detail)







The hand blown glass eyeball lamps made by Glassblower Livio Serena in Murano are based on exact clones of your actual eye color. Order them through 5.5 Designers.

All In One Plates:


The above plates look as though they are three stacked plates but it's actually one plate.

All in One Porcelain plates are trompe-l'oeil of 3 layered plates.
Two plates per pack. Made by Domestic
Material : Porcelain
Dimension : d:26,5cm
Color : white
Buy them here.


The Patriot Pin :


Above: This target is a reconditioned WIBC / ABC Approved AMF Amflite II bowling pin with Osama Bin Laden in the crosshairs. This pin is controlled weight and plastic coated. The wooden core and fresh plastic coating give this target a durable and long life for target practice. Approximately 15" tall and 4 3/4" in diameter.

Made by American Targets is made for actual target practice. But it certainly makes a cool piece of art. Buy it here.

Corner Frames:



These corner frames designed by Yvonne Schroedo for Thorsten van Elten is something I've been waiting for someone to produce. Wrapping around corners, either inwards or outwards, they come in black stained beech or natural maple wood.



Buy them here.


The Pick Chair:


The Pick chair is a lightweight, minimal folding chair that goes from hanging on the wall to completely unfolded and ready for seating. Epitomizing designer Dror Benshetrit’s vision: the emotion of art intertwined with the simple poetics of form following function. The first foldable cantilever chair, the pick chair goes from wall art to functional furniture with a flick of the wrist.

Saw and Tree Pick Chairs:

Materials: chromed aluminum structure; seat and back in open pores painted wood, laser graphic woodcut. Designed by Dror Benshetrit, manufactured by BBB emmebonacina.

You can buy the wood ones (saw and tree) from the artist's studio here.
