As part of Eat Spain Drink Spain join food writer Blanca Valencia in exploring how Spanish culinary heritage comes alive through unique design. This workshop examines the marriage of functionality and design in Spain's most well known food and drink-related objects—from packaging and bottles to  utensils that tell stories of regional identity, use and culture. The workshop explores both traditional and contemporary pieces: ancient drinking vessels like the botijo, porrón, and bota; Rafael Marquina's iconic dripless olive oil cruet; Zumex's revolutionary orange juice machines; and the essential paella pan.  We'll discover how Spanish design has elevated everyday items into cultural icons: the legendary Anís del Mono bottle immortalized in works by Juan Gris and Pablo Picasso, the shapes of Spanish cheeses like Manchego and Tetilla and the mythic Chupa Chups lollipop logo created by Salvador Dalí.
