dent1

The starting point for many of our projects is manufacturing methods and materials. In the case of the “Dent” lamps this experimentation started with clay and to experiment with the traditional clay throwing process. By forming a rounded tube and then squeezing it a “Dent effect” is created that causes the shape to warp. This dent effect creates a three dimensional pendant that provides multiple profiles depending on its viewing angle. The pendants are available in two sizes and three colours.

LZF Lamps’ inventive 2016 campaign, Telling Tales, features a collection of stories wherein the lamps support and illuminate the lives of the story’s characters. The award winning, internationally acclaimed company was founded by Marivi Calvo and Sandro Tothill twenty years ago after they designed a lamp for their home in Valencia, Spain, from wood veneer which they discovered had an ethereal quality to diffusing light. Timberlite, the ecologically treated veneer they’ve since developed, allows the wood to be hand bent into every shape their unstoppable imaginations allow —from a suspension lamp inspired by Agatha Christie, to the giant Koi Lamp the firm designed and unveiled at Milan’s Euroluce/Salon del Mobile in 2015.

skeleton-candles-animals-pyropet-thorunn-arnadottir-dan-kovaland-201

Does it get any cuter than a tiny animal-shaped candle? Probably not, but it does get creepier when it melts, revealing a skeleton. First delightful, then scary Pyropet candles do just that!

The project started by Thorunn Arnadottir and Dan Kovaland was successful from the very beginning, reaching the funding goal on Kickstarter just in 4 days. Now they are selling their candles all over the world.

Thorunn Arnadottir came up with the idea: “One day as I watched the chubby body of a jolly Santa Claus shaped candle slowly melt, deform, and perish into a sad pool of wax I wondered if I could elevate this common place ritual sacrifice into a true theatre of the macabre in wax.”

The interactive table, which was developed by students at Lund University and Eindhoven University of Technology together with design consultancy IDEO, can identify an ingredient placed on it via a camera and image-recognition technology. It will then suggest other ingredients to combine with it and can take the user through a full step-by-step recipe via instructions projected directly onto the surface of the table. “It sees what grocery you put onto it and decides through colour, shape and size what grocery it is,” explains Lund University student Ingrid Allenbach in the movie. “It will then suggest what will go well with it and give you recipes to guide you through how to cook them.”

lagoon-tables-that-i-create-by-merging-resin-with-cut-travertine-marble-7__880

The concept of La Table is to create unique, artistic, attractive designs that fit to their future owners as much as possible. For that purpose they have to have a soul, a story and something to tell. Designs have to be contemporary by its manufacturing technique and, of course, surprising. We always include something, for example resin, inside the material whether it is wood, marble, or metal.

odini_03

Loyal guardian and companion. Unlike traditional, static security cameras, Odini is a discreet mobile solution which aims to give privacy when you’re home and monitor and record events while you’re away. Better yet, Odini moves about your home autonomously to ensure all areas are secure. To move silently, it’s driven by four independent touch points between the main camera and clear outer ball section. — Like an addition to the family, Odini has been designed with personality in mind! He can let you know how he feels through an array of facial expressions. If his battery is running low, he’ll look tired. When he spots someone he recognizes, he’ll be excited…. someone he doesn’t know, he’ll be wary. If he notices something new, he’ll be curious and investigate until it’s familiar!
