Makio Hasuike containers designed for the Italian manufacturer Gedy in the 1970s illustrate an important phase of Italian plastic design, when industrial production and thoughtful design language began to merge in everyday domestic objects.
These Makio Hasuike containers were produced in injection molded ABS and belong to a wider generation of bathroom accessories developed during the rise of Space Age aesthetics. The soft rectangular volumes, rounded edges, and integrated lid openings reflect Hasuike’s approach to functional industrial design: simple geometry, ergonomic use, and clear visual identity.
During the 1970s, Gedy collaborated with several designers to redefine bathroom accessories as coordinated design objects rather than purely utilitarian items. In this context, Makio Hasuike containers stand out for their balanced proportions and restrained color combination, with a taupe exterior and ivory interior.
Objects like these demonstrate how Italian manufacturers experimented with new plastics to create durable and visually distinctive household accessories.
These containers can be combined with other examples of Italian plastic design and 1970s Space Age objects presented in the Natavintage collection, including the Makio Hasuike vanity case and the beige wall organizer from the same era, creating a cohesive 1970s Italian plastic design composition.
