A piece of stone can take thousands of years to form, how about the food we consume every day? 

The Stone of Origin project is a cross-over between food design team: Deep Food and Cambodian stoneware brand: Unsign. It aims to trace the atomic origin of food consumed nowadays and to celebrate the long journey that food has taken to exist in its current form.

​

The project designs tableware made of sandstone. Each stone comes with a fictional story detailing the legacy of these “creatures” spanning over millions of years. These stone creatures act as a metaphor for food substances we consumed every day. Let’s view food as a matter that has taken millions of years to form, as much as the formation of stones. Can we appreciate food with this new lens in such an imaginary world?
