Experimental Hybrid Cutlery

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Steinbeisser's Playful Forks and Spoons To Alter the Eating Experience

— September 15, 2016 — Art & Design
Steinbeisser is known for creating unconventional eating utensils and the recent hybrid design that incorporates forks and spoons into one tool provides a modern twist to the eating experience. The design doesn't combine the functionality of either utensil, but instead provides a dual structure that features both in one.

The utensil project is known as the Steinbeisser's Experimental Gastronomy and it features an alternative way to look at food through a playful lens. The collection features experimental designs and a vegan menu that utilizes plant-based foods. Guests partaking in the food tasting are to sample the dishes using unconventional utensils such as a spoon and fork fastened on a set of pliers or a fork with an extending spoon prong.
Trend Themes
1. Unconventional Eating Utensils - The hybrid cutlery design by Steinbeisser represents a trend towards unconventional eating utensils that provide a unique dining experience.
2. Experimental Gastronomy - Steinbeisser's Experimental Gastronomy showcases a trend of exploring alternative ways to engage with food and dining, opening up opportunities for innovative culinary experiences.
3. Plant-based Food Innovation - The vegan menu featured in Steinbeisser's Experimental Gastronomy highlights a trend towards plant-based food innovation, creating opportunities for new culinary creations and sustainable food options.
Industry Implications

2. Restaurant and Dining Experience - The Experimental Gastronomy concept by Steinbeisser opens up opportunities for restaurants and dining establishments to provide unique and engaging experiences for customers through unconventional utensils and experimental menus.
3. Plant-based Food Industry - The focus on plant-based food in Steinbeisser's Experimental Gastronomy creates opportunities for growth and innovation within the plant-based food industry, including new products, menus, and dining experiences.
