Kitty & Dude is the ceramics studio of Edinburgh, Scotland-based designer Cosima Sempill, whose work is definitely tongue-in-cheek, ably mixing kitschy ceramic forms with funky decals.

You can see more work by Kitty & Dude at the Velvet Boutique, which specializes in the work of innovative Scottish designers. For more contemporary ceramic work that remixes traditional embellishments and aesthetics, see the New York Delft plates by Lovegrove & Repucci, drip plates by Cat Merrick, Brooklyn tableware by Jordan Awan, vintage porecelain pieces by Esther Coombs, and milk bottles by Julia Rothman.
