Products can go beyond serving their basic function and impact the environment they're in.

New Product Innovation

A collaboration between Peroni and Alessi asked for innovative, stylish and original design applications of aperitivo accessories.

Since aperitivo is an italian tradition that combines small plates of food with alcoholic beverages, I decided to address the challenge in a very direct way. I wanted a design that would allow a person to easily hold both glass and plate in one hand when talking. From there I designed a system that would interlock and light up when connected. Adding a little extra style to this elaborate affair.
