Sugar Box: sugar sachet holder for Lotelito

The project

For Lotelito, we adapted our restaurant sugar holder design into a version with multiple compartments. The piece retains the character of a small tabletop container in natural plywood and features the establishment’s name on the front.

The starting point was an existing Archicercle design, rather than an object developed from scratch for this commission. The Lotelito version takes the form of a box with internal dividers to organise sugar sachets. Its shaped upper edge and the name on the front define the piece’s appearance.

The holder is made from natural plywood, assembled entirely by hand and spray-varnished with a clear matt finish. This leaves the appearance of the wood visible rather than adding an opaque colour.

The original design offered scope for adaptations in materials, finishes, colours and stains. For this commission, the documented solution is the natural plywood version with multiple compartments for Lotelito.
