Embracing Noise at the Dinner Table: Los Tres Cantorcitos
Los Tres Cantorcitos is a long-term design project that began as a classroom assignment and evolved into a personal exploration of culture, identity, and belonging. Initially prompted by a culinary tools redesign assignment, the project evolved into a set of noise-making utensils inspired by animals native to Mexico, designed to intentionally disrupt the traditional American dinner-table etiquette I have grown to know.
Drawing from my Mexican American upbringing, the project reframes noise as joy, expression, and connection. Designed for children, the utensil set encourages interaction and social engagement at the table through play.
