Waive Chaise

This was an entry for a competition for teenage furniture design.

Designed by Roberta Rammê from Brazil.

I soooo want one!

Designer's own words:

"Imagine a furniture to wear... then dress it with an innovator design, intense colors, ergonomics and technology appeal. Like in fashion, the point is to unify beauty, comfort, and functionality. Whether your desire is to watch TV or DVD, listen to your favorite CD, read, talk on the phone, or even study, take a nap or browse the internet, you got it close, in a multifunctional chaise-longue. This concept is inspired by the values and personality of a today's teenager and the standards generated by a global hi-tech culture of facilities, where the access to technology is cheap and easy."

Melting LED Light Bulbs

This concept created by industrial designer Keita Ogawa, won the bronze award in The 22nd Koizumi International Lighting Design Competition for Students. Every bulb looks like it’s melting while you use it.

A reminder about the unnecessary energy being wasted daily.
