Koziol Design Stuff


I really got to say: I am a lucky girl!
I have a thousands of reasons to say that, but there was something that happened to me as a Food Blogger I add to the list.
When I was still in university, I worked a bit at a german design company I always loved....they have stunning designs, beautiful and funny stuff, often both of these facts in one product. Colourful (and I LOVE colours...I am an artist). So nice!
The name of the company is "KOZIOL" - you probably saw some of their stuff already in stores.
Website is here: KOZIOL

I stayed a few weeks not far from them at the retirement home where my grandma lied. She was very sick, and so I had two weeks of sitting next to her bed. Because the home lies in a beautiful beautiful part of Germany (the Odenwald), I used the break times and lunch and dinner to enjoy nature and the little beautiful villages. Koziol was about 15 minutes by car away, and so I tought: YEAH! I could visit them! I only have good memories of my time there, and so I was excited to see the company and some of their awesome people again.

And really, after 7 years of absence, there were still a lot of people I knew! It was a heartwarming Hello-Again...awesome. And I am still in love with the products. They make me smile all the time.
I told them that I do food photography and really would like to do some shots with their stuff.
They gave me the opportunity to pick out the things I would like to experiment with...and they have A LOT of products. It took me a real long time to decide. What a hard life!
When I came home, there was already a package waiting for me :) - full of beautiful stuff.


What a great gift!
It inspires me so much. The things I can work now with are so different from those I use normally. It really challenges me. Forms and colours are kind of dominant, sometimes, so I have to think well about a photoconcept before shooting.

I began this weekend....I always have to find some free time next to my work as an illustrator and animator. But my head is exploding of ideas!

First I want to say: THANK YOU, KOZIOL TEAM! It was wonderful to see you again, and I really appreciate your work.

Now I can show you my first shots I did. You already saw the Beetroot Soup, the bowls are from Koziol. Very stylish.

Have a wonderful day@all!
