Swedish designers Front have created a whisky-serving set for whisky brand Ballantine's 12 that can be stacked into a balancing tower. In this Dezeen movie, Front's Sofia Lagerkvist explains how the project was informed by a visit to the Ballantine's production facilities in Scotland.

Called Ballance, Front's sculpture for Ballantine's 12 year-old blended whisky comprises an oak coaster, whisky glass, copper ice container, water jug and a copper spoon that fit together to create a seemingly precarious stack. The five individual pieces can be taken apart and used to serve whisky.

"We were invited by Ballantine's to create an object that celebrates the ritual of drinking whisky," explains Lagerkvist in the movie.
