Good Thing & Friends holiday bundles

Competition: win a limited-edition accessories bundle by Good Thing

Dezeen has teamed up Good Thing to give away seven gift packs, which pair the Brooklyn design brand's home accessories with additional products like t-shirts, books and candles.

Seven readers will each win one of the bundles Good Thing launched earlier this month ahead of the holiday season.

Bundles in the Good Thing & Friends series include the brand's curved Paper Display and a kit for making cards by accessories company Ban.do

Products by five partner brands feature in the Good Thing & Friends gift packs, which are on sale until the end of the year at a cheaper price than buying the products separately.

Among the seven bundles is a burgundy coloured version of the brand's Frank Tray – a crinkled, curved plate designed by Providence-based designer Christopher Specce. It is partnered with a hand-poured coconut and beeswax candle in Redwood by Los Angeles-based Boy Smells.

Products in each package are picked to complement one another, like the Standard Baggu Bag and the Seed Hook and Shelf

A yellow version of Specce's tray also features in another pack, to complement the bright hues of the accompanying Color Block Pencils by accessories brand Ban.do, which has contributed three products to the series.

For another, Ban.do's pink-toned t-shirt emblazoned with the slogan "See Everything" is teamed with a red version of Good Thing's Utility Mirror. Created by industrial design studio Visibility, the stainless steel mirror has a silicon handle and is shaped like a table-tennis bat.

Coffee lovers are catered for in another package, which couples coffee roaster Verve's Streetlevel blend with Good Thing's coffee and tea brewer Twin Carafe, designed by Studio Gorm.

The Oregon-based studio's double-walled borosilicate glass carafe is intended to keep beverages warm but hands cool. The accompanying silicone lid is used for straining, and comes in khaki in the bundle.

Another package, featuring the Slim Bookends by Taiwanese product and furniture designer Kenyon Yeh, is more suited to bookworms. The bookends, in blue, will be accompanied by the book Super Normal: Sensations of the Ordinary.

The book, which is published by Lars Müller, compiles 204 design classics picked by Jasper Morrison and Naoto Fukasawa.

Other gifts comprise a Standard Baggu Bag with Yeh's Seed Hook and Shelf. The bag, which folds flat into a five- by five-inch pouch, will come in yellow with a dotted pattern, offsetting the grey version of Yeh's design.

Lastly, Good Thing will be giving away a kit for making cards by Ban.do, along with the curved Paper Display that New York-based product designer Sam Anderson created with Good Thing founder Jamie Wolfond.

Other combinations include the coffee roaster Verve's Streetlevel blend and Good Thing's coffee and tea brewer, aimed at caffeine lovers

Wolfond, a Canadian designer, established Good Thing in 2014. The brand launched many of the products in the bundles at the beginning of this year, and then expanded the collection with  rugs, furniture and lights at this year's International Contemporary Furniture Fair in May.

The Good Thing & Friends series is also available to buy online up until 31 December 2017, and the brand plans to add new sets of combinations in the coming months.
