Light in a Drawer by Shinobu Koizumi

30 August 2011, 23.00 | Posted in Uncategorized | No comments »

Selectism - lightinadrawer1

Here’s some more from Curated:

“Japanese artisti Shinobu Koizumi designed “Light in a Drawer,” inspired by fairy tales with hidden treasures and dreamy illuminations.

Each drawer is made of frosted acrylic with a wooden front facade, and the lights are installed at the back of the drawers. The plastic construction means the light can be seen peeking from around the sides of each box, even if the drawer is shut. Further playing into the whimsical ideas of surrounding light, the handles are composed of the bases of electric light bulbs.”

Selectism - bonobobike-2

Curated lets us know about this:

“24-year-old Polish designer Stanisław Płoski defied the law of usual bike physics with the Bonobo Plywood Bike, which is crafted from plywood and proves to be more flexible than a typical bike. Płoski’s model uses bent plywood to form the frame, leaves out the seat-tube, and the the chain, grips and pedal are color-matched a light hue of green.”

Modernica Split Rail Chair

Selectism - modernica-split-rail-chair-01

We’ve heard chairs are the new Trickers. And what we mean by that these are handsome, functional and just a little out of our price range. But we’ll look all the same. Who knows, maybe they accept jigs as way of currency? (Modernica)

Selectism - dining-marble-table-01

You know those things that you didn’t even know we wanted until we saw them? We’re big fans of them. Take this table for instance, it’s not like we’re ever looked at a table and thought ‘hmmm, lets put some marbles on this table’. But now Ontwerpduo have done it we can’t help but think it’d be an amazing idea. (Fubiz)

Take a leap to see more.

Bokushi Installation at Isetan Japan

Selectism - Bokusho-installation-01

Handsome installation alert! That’s right, we do alerts for that sort of thing now, we’re snazzy like that. Designer Shun Kawakami recently did this for Isetan in Japan. We could go on about the tranquility but it just looks good, wouldn’t you agree? Of course you do. Take a leap to see more. (Spoon & Tamago)

Chemex 8 Cup Coffeemaker

04 August 2011, 14.30 | Posted in Design | 3 comments »

Selectism - neest-chemex-coffeemaker-01
Love it or hate it, we can’t deny a purdy looking coffeemaker. And this Chemex maker is undeniably good looking. Even a hardened coffee hater such as this writer would consider a cup or 8 to justify this purchase. And then he’d regret it, but at least the kitchen would look nice. It’s the small victories.

We’ve always got our eye open for affordable design and this ‘wide awake’ bulb fits the bill. At £25 it’s within the impulse purchase range and will look nice and artsy in your house – what more could you ask for? (Hidden Art)

Nendo Data Clip

Selectism - nendo-data-clip-01

Paperclips back! That’s what Nendo are saying after their latest release, which allows you to keep data and your papers in the same place. Not to get all poor man’s Louis CK on you but we remember using floppy disks to store all our data and now we’re keeping it on paper clips. Although we do worry that we’ll lose down the sides of our sofa. (Spoon & Tamago)
