Here's a tea set I designed for my history of modern design class after the Dutch De Stijl style pioneered by Theo Van Doesburg. It includes a teapot, creamer, tea cup, saucer and spoon. The name De Stijl was first the title of a design journal in Holland founded by the aforementioned artist. The style itself consisted primarily of rectilinear(rectangular) geometric shapes often at right angles and a balance b/w positive and negative shape, space and void. Additionally through the encouragement of Piet Mondrian the style also included primary colors red, blue and yellow, but in my design of the tea set I decided to leave that part out-personal reasons.
