The design duo made up of Takuya Niimi and Yuki Niimi were winners of a gold prize award at the second annual Muji design awards with their multipurpose "Towel with Further Options" (which was later manufactured by Muji). This time it's a stand for pots and kettles that bases its aesthetics on the flames of a gas stove. In keeping with Niimi's multipurpose theme, the grooves in the stand mean it can a double as a chopstick rest. The stand starts at ¥2,626, and goes up to ¥4,200 depending on the surface (casting or mirror) and heat support (low or high) you choose.
