I don't really remember when I became aware of the housewares company Joseph Joseph, but from that moment on I was a fan. I love this company's sense of style and color, and I love the clever functionality they incorporate into every product.

At the Maison & Objet trade fair in Paris, France Joseph Joseph has a stand in Hall 3. A few new items shown there confirm that this company is nowhere near maxing out their product development savvy. A dual salt-and-pepper grinder fills each well through the head -- so easy! The Quick Snap ice cube tray makes popping your ice cubes out a breeze. And a salad bowl with integrated servers allows color blocking to fool the eye. Here is the salad bowl I hope I can buy once I get back to the States.
