Emma Knaken, a student at the ArtEZ University of the Arts, focuses on finding ways to stimulate creative dining experiences that emphasize playfulness and aesthetics. The project, which is titled Moōn, was designed as "a landscape for your table" and it was intended to "change the way you look at dining."
Emma Knaken embraced wood, glass, and ceramics as primary materials for the unconventional objects. The creative dining experiences are definitely focused on bringing folks together around the table in unconventional ways with food. About their project, Emma Knaken shares that "[she] believes we need to see food as a celebration again, instead of a necessity. Let's start to enjoy and play with our food!"
