The avant-garde design duo of ‘King Kong’ is made up of two designers, Stefano Giovannoni & Guido Venturini. With a interest in popular culture and cartoons, the duo aimed to capture a childish playfulness within their designs. The ‘Girotondo’ range offers the familiar cut-out man as the central icon, stemming from the name itself which is taken from the Italian version of the common rhyme ‘ring-a-ring-a-roses’, a fitting motif to decorate the entire range.
This lime green tray lends itself to a number of uses. Perfect as a table centrepiece for fruit or bread, or as a catch-all for pocketable items, the bold green and playful cut-out motif makes this a seamless and enjoyable addition to any contemporary space.
