Wild tables
17 Mar 2011
Enough of boring furniture! Designer Toot Chen has a unique humorous approach when creating everyday objects as tables or lamps. Chen`s tables lope, lean, even sit and sprawl thanks to their bending knees. This furniture is getting alive, it reminds of animals or little monsters. The experiment with tables works with lamps as well, Chen`s lamps are sprawling as snakes creating sculptural pieces.

Steel Chair by Pawel Grunert
14 Mar 2011
Designer Pawel Grunert has recently presented its newest creation, the Nest Chair dubbed also SIE51 that will be officially premiered in Milan at Salone Internazionale del Mobile 2011. The inspiration by a bird nest is evident and well done. It was handmade from stainless steel, so you can use this chair either inside or outside. I perceived the Nest Chair more as an sculptural piece than a seating, it reminds me more of a steel scrubber, to be honest. Wondering if it is comfortable, if anyone buys it, please let know!

Did you know that one wastes almost six liters of tap water while washing hands? Designers Yonggu Do, Dohyung Kim & Sewon Oh decided to raise awareness of this problem and designed the “1ℓimit faucet”. The tap tube is made from glass and can hold only 1 liter of water, so when you used it up you need to wait till it fills up to use it again and next time you will use it more wisely.

Fred & Friends designers keep to surprise with fresh and modern ustensiles and other products of daily use.

This unified shaker is no brainer but still it is original and funny to use a large toggle button to switch between pepper and salt.
