Butter yellow: the trend that has taken hold

The bread basket you don't need - but want right away

In Paris, baguettes are usually carried under the arm or in a paper bag. But a Swedish designer is now giving this tradition a new twist.
Now he shows that even a simple bread basket can become a design statement.
The «Baguette Holder» was 3D printed in Stockholm from recycled plastic and comes in eye-catching Barbie pink - a colour that is typical of Westman's designs. «The material has an incredibly strong, shiny surface», the designer explained to Dezeen.
Design with a wink
The portable bread basket was designed for a pop-up shop in Paris. And of course, when the city of love is involved, the baguette is a must. Instead of simply placing it in a piece of paper or in a bowl, Westman has designed a wave-shaped base that showcases the bread like a small work of art.
Even his magazine rack, the «Spiral Stand», brought this vibe with its wave-shaped silhouette and high-gloss steel or chrome finish. And the colours? Typical Gustaf: a delicate pastel shade like pink.
A design statement for the streets of Paris and beyond
Those who want to experience the «Baguette Holder» live will have the chance to see it on Westman's pop-up tour in cities such as Amsterdam and Madrid until September 2025. The design is not yet available online, but the tour shows how close Westman wants to be to his fans: «I want to meet the people who like my stuff, not just the industry», he told Dezeen.
For those who can't make it to the pop-ups, all that's left is anticipation - or a look at actual, stinkin'-normal bread baskets.
