Constructivists Teapot from Parasite Ceramics
British housing estates have proved a surprising source of creative inspiration in recent years, with Trellick Tower adorning everthing from bags to plates. The Market Estate in Caledonian Road, North London, was demolished in 2010 but has inspired a range of products from Parasite Ceramics including this Constructivists Teapot.
A silhouette tower adorns this good-looking white fine bone china teapot, reinventing the sixties tower block as stylish design motif. Not only does the teapot look good, but crucially it's substantial enough to hold six cups of tea. Other items in the range include plates and mugs.
You can buy the teapot for £25 from Culturelabel here.
