joey ruiter + studio
joey ruiter is a michigan-based designer who works with metal to create "timeless icons in design". his site is still under construction but i was intrigued by these pieces. i think they're lovely but what do you guys think- timeless icons of design or not quite timeless yet?

Maybe. The mirror is pretty trendy, not timeless.

I love the bowl- it's so elegant. I think if we could see more we'd be able to tell if it's timeless. Hopefully he'll get his site up and running soon, eh?

Nice, but not timeless.
Timeless or not, that mirror is H-O-T!
Definitely not timeless. Very nice though.
How can you set out to make something a "timeless icon"?
Perhaps a goal that could only end up with contrived products?

that's a tough one. i'm going to take or make a prediction. timeless!
Yea, the mirror is not timeless, but it is completely awesome.
I see the bowl as being very special in a sculptural, organic, way. I do not feel that way about the mirror, I find it a little more "kitschy".
the bowl is lovely, timeless? Mirror is total fun, not going for timeless.
The bowl--timeless. The mirror/frame, not so much.
louise campbell. very round chair.
as for the rest, you people seem to get caught up too tightly in words... don't take everything so literally!!! gloss over it...
Bowl is timeless, mirror is right on trend- and actually a little reserved which makes it very nice.
"timeless icons in design"? is this guy for real? what, is he 12yo?
Its not even design its craft!
