It’s absolutely no secret, Marcel Wanders a Dutch designer, is a design idol of mine! I have very much enjoyed blogging about his latest design projects in the past, and have been just “itching” to feature him yet once again! Ofcourse, time would take its course and i’d cross paths with his amazing design sensibility yet again, though this time, the platform of this encounter is one based upon that of Christmas…yes. Unusual, unexpected, attainable and affordable??? nonetheless i’m excited!

Maybe even more unusual is just how accessible his designs will be now, as they are available at Target. The collection of his creations include dishes, bowl sets, place card holders, pillar candles, and so on… So my take on these peices is as follows: They are clean, simple, and incorporate interesting details reminescent of vintage and classic appeal such as scallopped edges, gold detailing, retro patterns in bold reds contrasted with crisp whites, almost your grandmother’s house aesthetic- but cooler! Final Take: FANTASTIC design<…>at a great PRICE!

Make sure you also check out his website, and more specifically where he has featured the new Target Collection of housewares and accessories. The innovation behind the story right from concept, through development, into production demostrates an extremely aesthetically appealing, interactive, and wonderful dialogue!
