Ground coffee beans have great odor neutralizing abilities, and the Coffee Ground Holder set encourages you to take advantage of this cheap and accessible source as an air freshener, over expensive and heavily scented alternatives.
Designer Yuree S. Lim knows that simply placing the substance within a bowl creates the conditions that allow it to breathe and take effect; however, the opportunity is taken to develop a collection of receptacles that play on the common application of the brown granular matter. A cappuccino mug, dipper topped with a grate, a pleated filter and a shallow dish capped with a plastic coffee cup lid are all recreated in what look to be ceramic containers. The Coffee Ground Holder collection offer three lighthearted vessels that can act as effective odor eaters in bathrooms and kitchens alike.
