The Art of the Everyday Object

How small design choices change how we live:

We often overlook the things we touch most - the handle of a mug, the curve of a spoon, the board we chop on every morning. Yet these quiet companions shape how we move, feel, and connect with our space.

Design isn’t only about how something looks; it’s about how it makes us live. The way a surface feels beneath your hand, the weight of a knife, the sound of a drawer closing, all of it affects the rhythm of daily life. Subtle design decisions can turn routine into ritual.

At Oddzi, we believe everyday objects deserve as much thought as the ones we call “art.” A chopping board can do more than serve function; it can anchor a space, spark joy, and remind us that sustainability can be both playful and beautiful.

Each board we create starts as discarded plastic, reshaped into something that invites use and admiration. The wavy edges soften its form, making it approachable. The patterns tell stories of colour and renewal. Every mark, every curve, is intentional.

Because when design meets purpose, ordinary things become extraordinary.

The cup becomes a comfort.
The board becomes conversation.
The everyday becomes art.
