Erik Magnussens designs are characterised by the simple, yet functionally rich solutions. With his desire to trim off the excess, his passion in materials and productional insights, he managed to challenge the existing — to make an impact on the present.

The porcelain signs were designed for Bing & Grøndahl in the early seventies when Erik Magnussen was still one of the company’s in house artists. He was engaged in finding new, obvious uses for the material, as the company was experiencing a decline in the demand for full dinner sets. The plates are slightly concave in order to minimize disturbing reflections. The mounting was designed to avoid damaging the plate when tightening the screws.
