    The producer

    Why it matters.

    The Akoko bowl makes the design process visible: material, color, rim, and scale were iterated around one culturally specific dish.

    The origin.

    Jun Rhee's Akoko commission translated Jollof rice into a red British-stoneware bowl after more than 140 prototypes.
