Ever thought you would find a crystal chandelier that is dishwasher safe? Schnobek’s new lighting called Da Vinci is actually the world’s first dishwasher safe chandelier. Thousands of different sized crystal octagons are used to compose the perfect roundness of this light.

Tom Price- Meltdown Chairs
November 14, 2007
Tom Price has created a new way to sit when designing his newest series named Meltdown Chairs. He uses the same technique of heating and pressing a seat-shaped former into a ball, using different materials for each chair including polypropylene rope, PVC hose, and a stack of common plumbing tubes. All the materials begin to melt when in contact with the heated former, and when cooled a seat is made. All the chairs use no additional material and come just from the rope, hose, or plumbing tubes. Who knew something so simplistic would turn out looking so neat. Read the rest of this entry »

Bossa Pendant Luminary
November 4, 2007
The new Bossa Pendant Luminary designed by Fernando Prado and manufactured by Lumini is a wonderful combination of both form and function. The luminary itself is a very simple concept, basically its an overhead light that is able to easily expand to allow more light in order to brighten up a room. Basically the luminary uses a combination of a reflector and an aluminum disc to allow the user to change between direct and indirect lighting giving an infinite possibility of lighting effects. I love simple designs and this luminary is a prefect example of how simple designs can sometimes be the most practical.
