Rolling Stone was part of a traveling exhibition, Scandinavian Design Beyond the Myth (2003-2006). and part of the permanent collection of a museum in Reykjavik, Iceland and Copenhagen’s Design Museum, Denmark.

The idea behind this collaboration with Icelandic artist Tinna Gunnarsdottir was to design a completely different kind of container and, at the same time, an object that could not be controlled. The result, an ingenious ball shaped object, with a penchant for rolling, fulfils both desires. Four of the eight original designs were manufactured and are available in limited editions of 4 pieces each.
