Inspired By Nature, Kokili Projects’ Tree Story

Entitled ‘Tree Story’, a mismatch of glass jars in varied shapes and sizes hold the most commonly used herbs and spices. The studio explains, “Our designs look to imbue the familiar with the unknown and the highly functional with the seemingly useless.” With ‘Tree Story’ Kokili Projects build upon the experience of the outdoors, with each container reminiscent of a tree, as herbs and spices fall like leaves when shaking the glass dome. An opening atop of the jar offers a unique combination of aromas, “We believe good design is not only visual but can stimulate the five senses we naturally possess and are gifted with – touch, smell, taste, visual and hearing,” explain the studio. The collection sits elegantly on a brass tray with a polished nickel finish, which reflects the image of a pond. With ‘Tree Story’ Kokili Projects invites the outdoors into the home — the transparent shell means your ‘Tree Story’ can, too, echo the alternating colors and textures of the seasons.
