These fig shaped inflatable lanterns are perhaps a bit childish but I feel they add a poetic feel to any outdoor space now that its freezing outdoors !"

"Designed by Chicago-based artist and designer Susan Dwyer. Her studio in Chicago is called 'Up in the Air Somewhere' and she says the skyline of this city inspires her to make these elegant vases, votives and planters. I love the colors, the clean lines and soft tones of the glaze." added on 2008-11-12

"Beanbag on the inside, space age on the outside. Is there anything more a teenager could ask for?

According to the designer of Troy Backhouse, the answer is no. This is the perfect place to hide for a little solitary time. Then I’d like to be a teenager again and have the ESCAPsulE instead of that little uncomfortable cubbyhole I created myself under my desk with a blanket and with piles of book, thank you." added on 2008-11-12

Caged Message vases by Cypriot designer Alexis Themistocleous contain a secret message that can only be revealed when they are smashed.

The message is laser-cut from stainless steel, meaning that the words can alternatively be read through an X-Ray machine.

The vases themselves are cast from bubble-wrap.

The following information is from Alexis studio:

Inside each of these objects, lies a secret message. But there's a catch… to read it, you have to break it. In this particular project I aim to use destruction as a form of creation. To make them, plaster is moulded around a structure encased with bubble wrap, leaving a highly tactile surface. Inside each vase sits a laser cut stainless steel - a technique which also allows the text to be read through an X-Ray machine rather than breaking it.

On the specific project I was using "natural" moulds. What I mean by saying natural moulds is using particular shapes produced by Nature to cast vases. In this particular case, the role of Nature is displayed by using peppers and pumpkins to cast objects.

By filling a pepper or a pumpkin with clay, I was casting the negative space of the vegetable and as a result I created a product that is unique and to take it out of the "mould" (the vegetable) I had to break it. It is unachievable to find two of the same peppers so every time the object casted is unique.

One can never create an identical copy with his hands but instead something similar with the previous one. In this case the uniqueness of the shape is kept every time. What makes these objects unique are not just the variations of the shape but also the imperfections on the surface of the final piece." added on 2008-11-11

By giving a little twist to a lamp all the regular parts get a double meaning. This makes it a very friendly and funny object.

"at this year's 100% design tokyo, next maruni presented new furniture in a joint exhibition between maruni wood industry inc. and maysa co., ltd., entitled 'nextmaruni + HA-RU mono'. included in the exhibition was an armless chair designed by kazuyo sejima and ryue nishizawa of SANAA. the duo first designed a similar chair back in 2005. now nextmurani has released the chair in a wider version.
the design consists of free asymmetric 'ears' which act as the back of the chair. it is made from translucent white beechwood, which speaks to the chair's minimalist design."

"Instead of today's contemporary, if you're looking to infuse a little mid-century modern into your playroom, look no further than ThreePotatoFour's collection of retro child's chairs. Especially sized for tot-sized tushes, this extensive assemblage ranges from vintage red molded fiberglass to bent-ply and woodwork-style seats, and even original Harry Bertoia wire chairs. Very original and cool, I remember some of these from when I was in school. " added on 2008-11-11

"In the shape, it is a traditional Moroccan teapot made flat, but for the volume, it's made with an industrial technique which is one of the most efficient and profitable : extrusion.
The opposition of these two universes gathered in one object raises the issue of the ambivalent link of love and hate that can exist between artisan and industrialist."

"The colors and shapes jump out at you, smacking you with clarity of form and just enough flare to draw the eye. These Kappu lamps from Giorgio Biscaro do just that with its two thermoformed sheets of polypropylene that clip together and shroud the filament lamp inside. With the ease of deconstruction, different finishes and colors can be mixed and matched to your style, while the materials keep costs low." added on 2008-11-10
