The Ceramic Speakers are made from porcelain, cork, and Baltic birch. Each material is minimally finished, left to add its natural beauty to the design. The included amplifier is made from stainless steel sheet metal, with a cast iron base and paulownia volume slider.
Aside from the electronic components, plastic is completely avoided in the system’s construction. The Ceramic Speakers’ custom-made drivers, porcelain and cork enclosures, and Tripath amplifier reveal every nuance. They will show the difference between lossless and mp3 files, and will unlock vinyl’s richness.
Joey Roth designs products to articulate the beauty of everyday rituals. He combines simple functionality with honest, unfinished materials that become more personal as they take on a patina of use. He’s especially interested in designing tools for ephemeral experiences like tea and music.

Each Droop light is made from a reclaimed bottle. Bottles are heated in a kiln to a temperature where they begin to slump. Steel structures and insulating fiber paper stop portions of the bottle from deforming. In this way certain details of the original bottle are preserved while others are simply melted away.
Each bottle reacts differently to the heat, thus creating a snowflake effect. No two bottles ever look the same. In this new era of American life manufacturing here is at a minimum and nostalgia has arisen for objects of a crafty nature. A reclaimed bottle was used in this instance to represent this change. It is a statement of craft and manufacturing.

"Coil Lamp reduces the iconic table lamp to the absolute minimum of defining elements. The entire form is created exclusively from a single 100 foot extension cord that has been wrapped around a laser-cut clear plexiglass form. This simple transformation elevates the status of the humble extension cord to the realm of domestic design."
'Handmade' Coil Lamps are numbered and signed limited editions, that are hand-coiled and come ready to plug in and use. Included are the acrylic frame, the bulb adaptor, 100' orange extension cord, and 1 CFL lightbulb.
‘D.I.Y’ Coil Lamp Kits allow the buyer to participate in the design process by having them wrap their own extension cord to complete the form. The kit includes the laser-cut acrylic frame, bulb adaptor, and illustrated assembly instructions. Buyers will need to purchase one 100 foot extension cord as well as one CFL lightbulb.
