Celebrate New York Design Week with MOLD and our special preview and exhibition of five bespoke design objects featured in MOLD Magazine Issue 01. In our feature “Culturing Yogurt,” we share the history and cultural context of yogurt-making from personal and professional kitchens that span the globe. Pairing chefs and designers from eight countries including Czechoslovakia, Greece, India, Jordan, Kenya, Lebanon, Russia and the United States, we commissioned designers to reimagine the tools for yogurt making and eating within a contemporary context.

We’ll be sharing five of these designs and their stories at Canal Street Market (265 Canal Street) this Friday – Monday, 11AM – 7PM. Come see the exhibit and then join us for Friday’s opening night Howard Street Block Party hosted by Tom Dixon and Dezeen along with 20 other Canal Street Market neighbors (including Opening Ceremony, Sonos, Roll & Hill, Sleep Jones and more). We’ll be partying from 5PM – 9PM so come down for some snacks and brews.
