Design We Like is a blog series highlighting everyday items that complement the aesthetic sensibility of Turkel Design. By sharing these selections from our team, we hope to reveal more about our own design thinking: understated beauty, clean lines, high-quality materials, and work that is built to last. Durable rather than delicate, timeless rather than trendy, these are the workaday essentials that are too well-designed to keep hidden in a drawer. There’s no sponsored content here—it’s a place for us to celebrate the things that we believe would fit in a Turkel Design home.
As winter shortens the days and lowers the temperature, you need beautiful household items that facilitate the sharing of warm foods and beverages with loved ones. The items on this list of soul-warming serving vessels have two things in common: they’re designed for preparing and/or conveying warm sustenance, and they exemplify the functional elegance of Scandinavian and Japanese design.
Whether it’s for coffee and tea or soups and stews, these classic yet modern kitchen implements will impress anyone whom you invite to the table—even if you live someplace that stays warm year-round.

Your home should be your sanctuary—and every sanctuary needs an immaculately prepared cup of tea.

En Turkel Diseño, precisión is integral to our work—the precision of panelized prefabrication allows us to design homes for locations worldwide.

Olla Sarpaneva
Influyente escultor y diseñador finlandés Timo Sarpaneva (1926-2016) debuted this cast-iron pot in 1960. Its clean lines and fine craft are hallmarks of Scandinavian style, one that Sarpaneva influenced throughout the twentieth century. The rustic wooden handle is designed to lift the lid off the pot; its shape and materiality are meant to recall meals around the campfire. An enamel coating makes it easy to clean leftover soups and stews. The Sarpaneva Pot is a winner of the 1960 Milan Triennial and the International Design Award in the United States; it’s even part of the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. We can’t think of a better vessel from which to ladle a hearty cold-weather meal.
