When light comes from the dark

I love lamps, but I love when there is a trick in their design. Something special. I found the "Bilderschirm" designed by 1kilo, a printed paper lampshade. The idea is simple: the design changes when you switch on the light.

This lamp screen made of paper prints is a pretty amazing art piece and product. The idea is that when you switch on the lamp, the patterns transform and complete a scene. The scene is the art piece: all the animals are threatened by hunters and their riffles. Probably a little bit of questioning on our relationship to these pretty animals that we adore, use as ornament and also that sometimes we kill for fun.

To assemble the lamp, you put the "Bilderschirm" around the bulb and insert the tab into the slot. This simple mechanism makes it easy to remove and alternate between lampshades.

Pillowing

This super soft pillow was created by Ella Fint.

Towel moment

I am always looking for the ideal towels. High quality, soft, trendy, not too trendy, simple, underground looking, with style. Well I have found a set that I like at this design store.

Marimekko’s high-quality terrycloth products are made of pure cotton. The range of products includes towels of different sizes, bathrobes, slippers, wash mitts and bath mats in both pattern and single-coloured terrycloth. There are also soaps and shower curtains matching the terrycloth products. The patterns and colours of Marimekko’s cosmetics bags have also been designed to match the bathroom textiles.

The best cd player

Few years ago I bought this awesome CD player from MUJI. I found an interview on Fukasama, the designer of this mythical CD player.

"Japanese people cherish the whole process of how an object is gradually formed and then is turned back into decay, probably more so than the actual object itself. In nature, the Japanese are not really the kind of people to want so many things. With an object, what is more important than the design itself is where and how in everyday life it was used. Even things like beauty and art were sought in ordinary and everyday objects, not something decorative and so special. People nowadays are forgetting the fact that the beauty within lies deep within simplicity." - Fukasama

A game for kitten!

Icosahedron, jeux pour chat, Paris 1998


Icosahedron is a game for cats. The cat moves into the interior of the volume by one facet. Hidden in this shelter, taking advantage of holes, it can look and react to what is happening around him. In the action, this unstable shelter may start to roll and become an infernal ball with legs that arise. Via. Link

Silver phone

A glamorous update of a 1950s Design Classic.

The Dreyfuss 500 was, for many years, the most popular ‘phone in America. This new silver version is rugged and heavy and features an authentic mechanical ring, just like the original, but functions with push button technology.

Snap and dine

Snap and Dine is a single use three-course table setting that integrates disposable cutlery with traditional silverware. The portable lunch setting expands the possibilities of eating outdoors in style whilst reinforcing the correct use of cutlery, which has been lost over time. This is achieved through the decorative qualities and formal setting which both are a visual reference to fine dinning. This product is fun and interactive whilst raising the standards of current eating on the go habits.

Valentine portable typewriter and cover

Designed by Ettore Sottsass, Jr. (b. 1917) with Perry A. King (b. 1938)
Manufactured by Olivetti
Milan, Italy, ca. 1969
Gift of Barry Friedman and Patricia Pastor, 1986-99-40-a,b

"Sottsass designed the Valentine portable typewriter to have a casual ease and appeal. Scaled smaller than traditional typewriters and lighter in weight than most portables, the Valentine proved to be as pragmatic as it was visually striking.

Intended by designer and architect Ettore Sottsass to be the “anti-machine machine,” the Valentine made a vivid statement in a market dominated by somber appliances. The colorful plastic casing brought a sense of emotion to the typewriter, serving to differentiate it in store windows and newly inspire the literary crowd - IDEO selects"

Critical design: a smoke cocoon

Smoking in public buildings was banned in France on 1 January this year, so Paris architect Florian Brillet has designed an adjustable hood to keep smokers cosy outside bars and cafes. Thank you LLLLsLLLL for the link!

Fragile design

Fragiles is an eclectic collection of unconventional contemporary work in porcelain, glass and ceramics. Today, these materials are increasingly being used in playful ways by both established and emerging design talents, who are inspired by Modernism, an ironic depiction of kitsch and an expanded repertoire of forms made possible by technological developments such as rapid prototyping. The spectrum and quality of these innovative projects shows a current generation of designers just how relevant and challenging working with these traditional fragile materials can be.

Fragiles Porcelain, Glass and Ceramics by R. Klanten, S. Ehmann

Deep water bath plug

A necessary element for a taking proper bath!

"Most baths have some sort of overflow “safety” drain or hole that is located on the top of the lever that stops your drain when pulled up. Now, while this IS good for safety, it is horrible for getting the water level of your bath tub anywhere near full, dixit Bloglander"

You can get the bath plug Here

Twigware by Michael Aram

The Forest Leaf Collection takes its inspiration from the intricacies of form and texture found in foliage from around the world. I believe everybody has an emotional response when they see natural objects. They are part of all of us. I imagine eating with implements given to me by the forest itself. It’s primordial yet evocative of something timeless. For me, these pieces have elegance but remain a touchstone to the natural world. Natural twigs cast in place with stamped tops, in silver plate – add a piece of the forest to your place setting!!
