Mini Moderns – Medium Ceramic Mug 325ml – Pavilion 4

Often described as ‘cult Brit homewares brand‘, Mini Moderns was established in 2006. They are London based designers, Keith Stephenson and Mark Hampshire. Working from their Camberwell studio, the brand specialises in applied pattern across a range of products. These include wallpapers, fabrics, cushions, bedding and ceramics. Unquestionably, the duo’s design influences encompass mid-century British textiles, ceramics and collectibles. Sharing a passion for social history, Mark and Keith’s work is often informed by music, literature and travel. Leading them to describe their design ethos as ‘pattern with a story’.

Mini Moderns joint creative directors Keith Stephenson and Mark Hampshire’s collective design experience spans fashion, product and interiors. At first, the pair met whilst working in a London branding and design agency. Then they immediately bonded over their love of mid-century design. Finding the world of corporate design too restricting, Mark and Keith followed their joint passion for interiors. Originally intended as a creative outlet, it has quickly established itself as a successful business. Mini Moderns now sell throughout the UK, Europe, the U.S. and Australia.

As well as launching their own collections, Mini Moderns have worked on many commissions in the culture sector. For instance, collaborations with the Courtauld Gallery, Southbank Centre, National Theatre, London Transport Museum, Turner Contemporary and Museum of London.

Mark and Keith first met Keith Brymer Jones when they were all exhibiting at a London trade show in 2015. Most importantly, the collaboration is finally here and we bring you ‘the Modern Kitchen Collection‘ range of ceramic mugs. A selection of exquisite designs curated by Keith Brymer Jones.

Serve up a cuppa in this statement ceramic mug featuring the eye-catching ‘Pavilion’ design by contemporary interiors brand Mini Moderns. Inspired by the Abacus screen from the 1951 Festival of Britain this abstract line and dot design will add a splash of mid-century style to any kitchen.
