The Chin Family was designed by Stefano Giovannoni in collaboration with National Palace Museum Taiwan.
Stefano was asked to imagine and design a sort of mascot for the new Museum of the 21st Century. From this was born the “Family of Mr. Chin” series for the “A di Alessi” catalogue: a group of characters, each of whom represents a specific household function.
“Mr. Chin” is also represents a new chapter in the ludic design language that characterizes Stefano’s work.
The collaboration between Alessi and the NPM of Taiwan grew out of the museum’s wish to open itself yet further to the international scene, and to encourage greater awareness of Chinese history and culture in the West.
The Family members include; Mr Chin Timer, Mr and Mrs Chin salt and pepper set, Queen and King chin salt and pepper grinders, Mr Chin egg cups, King and Queen magnets, King and Queen bottle caps and Mr Chin Key rings.
