YǒU 

For your friends, for your family, for you.

YǒU is a tableware set that is made to create better sharing experiences

Many years ago, it came to my attention that bowls and plates are made to sit on the table and not made to be picked up. There are many occasions when we're trying to pass the food around we'll have to dig our fingers into the bottom of the tableware. Also in Chinese culture, it's our tradition to pick up our bowls while eating so that we don't make a mess. It shares similarities with eating street food, the container becomes a part of our hand and we take the food and the container to our mouth, which makes a lot of sense for most of the food we eat every day.

01

Made for sharing and more.

It all starts with the idea of sharing, and it’s not just another set of tableware. Sharing food is a way of sharing love and story. When we celebrate, we eat, we feast, we drink. When we’re trying to know more about someone, we do the same. It’s all about sharing.

Comfort in your hands

They’re ergonomically designed with angles for better single or two hand holding gestures, making passing an easier motion. They’re designed to be picked up and be held in your hands.

Multifuctionality

Bread, noodles, meats, salads, no matter what cultural background we have, we all share foods and drinks in similar forms. All the containers in the set are multi-functional. They are bowls and plates, for salads, rice, pasta, wraps, dippings, sushi, and more.

Designed with different heights.

Designed at different heights, so you can move them around at ease. The sharing plate, which will be passed around the most is designed with the most height. The extra height will set you free from the obnoxious feeling of trying to squeeze into the edge between the plate and the table.
