Haidee Drew's Cog Containers series is inspired by familiar thoughtless actions and how physical engagement with an object can be encouraged through physical connections between objects and the movement created through interlocking cogs. The use of rubber makes people less hesitant to touch the objects, creating a tactile experience with silverware. She has rather cleverly transferred ideas, normally more associated with classical engineering, and applied them to some quite deliciously impact-full product design. The wheels of industry imaginatively subverted into playpower!
