Designed by Dubai-based studio Binchy and Binchy, this table was inspired by architecture and explores a design language that is truly Emirati. The tabletop is a reference to mashrabiya screens, a typical architectural element in Arabic residences.

According to designers Eason Yang, Yu Jun and Ellen Chan, this plate for Douxteel was inspired by the reflection of the moon on the water. “The full moon is like a wheel, a plate, or a mirror, and the softness of water has infiltrated the texture and layering of the moon,” they say.

5. Aurora, Marina, and Sahara Mirrors by Fernando Mastrangelo
