These glass forms were inspired by scientific glassware originally intended for laboratories. They capture the spirit of FRONT as a tasting workshop and are used in the cafe as artful display cases for pastries and edible treats. The custom Borosilicate glassware is nested inside custom tooled bases of Richlite, a recycled paper-based fibre composite board, that references laboratory table tops. Available through FRONT cafe. Designed in collaboration with Adam Reineck.

The Flaskware packaging is specially designed with the language of the cafe's unique pegboard system in mind. Bent metal rods slot into pegboard holes on two sides to serve as handles for ease of carrying. Stenciled graphics clearly mark the contents shape and weight. These sturdy boxes are lightweight, and nice enough to be kept and reused. Designed in collaboration with Lisa Mishima.
