Design House Stockholm - Carrie Market Shopping Basket

Design House Stockholm - Carrie Market Shopping Basket - Green
Marie-Louise made her first prototype for the SHOPPING basket out of crochet tablecloths in her studio for an exhibition called “Tokyo Style” in Stockholm in 2004. The theme was “fika” (Swedish word for coffee break) meets Japanese “tea time”. She chose an ornate material because it reminds her of her grandmother, who always baked seven different types of cookies for fika and served them on her finest crochet tablecloths. The basket is therefore both functional and emotional and if you turn the basket upside down you get a table that looks like it is covered with a sweet crochet tablecloth.
