The Osaka bowl combines brutalist form with practical function through its distinctive half-sphere shape elevated on three large platforms. Cast in solid fibre concrete, its substantial weight and architectural silhouette allow it to serve as either a functional vessel or a standalone sculptural object. Each piece is finished with a hand glaze, resulting in unique variations in tone and texture across individual units. Note that the bowl is non-waterproof.
A half sphere elevated by three large platforms characterises by Nicolaj Nøddesbo and Tommy Hyldahl's 'Osaka' bowl for 101 Copenhagen. The result is a brutalist object that may be utilised practically, or simply displayed as a sculptural object thanks to its heaviness and architectural shape. Cast in solid fibre concrete, the bowl is finished with a hand glaze and as such each one presents its own unique variations in tone and texture. Non-waterproof.
