Box Light
February 13, 2010
The ingeniously simple Box Light from Design House Stockholm works like a drawer, pulling in and out of its shell to adjust how much light emanates from it.
For more illumination, slide the light out. For less, slip it further back into the case and simply touch its surface to turn it on or off.
The work of Finnish designer Jonas Hakaniemi, the Box Light comes in black, gray or silver for $275 and will be available from Design House Stockholm’s online store.

This sleek chair by designer Vladimir Tsesler displays an attitude with the way its two front legs are crossed.

Continuum Table
The legs for the Continuum Table by Jason Phillips look like thick, silver spaghetti noodles looping around and keeping the tabletop supported. The design is inspired by models of space-time-continuum where winding structures form an invisible network within the universe.

Bowl
The more we use certain objects, the more they adapt to us. A shoe gets more comfortable with time. A leather chair slowly acquires the shape of its owner. A staircase shows how frequently and in which places it is stepped onto the most. Even the wooden neck of a guitar becomes easier to play after years of use.
But other things, such as tableware or pottery, don’t change like this. Although an emotional connection might grow with familiarity, their surface does not reflect this attachment, but rather the dints and scratches of history and abuse.
What do these objects would look like if they were able to modify its shape according to their owners’ habits?
This piece was developed thinking about the imperfections associated with small batch ceramic production, where very precise shapes are not easily attainable.”

Springtime Chair
Designer frank winnubst has concluded that the most comfortable chairs to sit in are usually those which have an upholstered construction involving springs. so, he researched various types of springs to develop a chair with optimum seating comfort, letting the function determine the form. Through the process, his chair ‘springtime’ has became rather large and bulky in its cubic form. To ensure that the springs would not be hard and cold upon the user’s body, winnubst knit covers for the top layer of springs.
