Have you ever heard of Oops design awards, this is a very “honourable award” that was found by Andrej Statskij earlier this year. The following award is given to those who managed to create the ugliest,silliest and most useless products in furniture design, design itself, tableware and houseware design, lighting and etc. Not very prestigious, yeah? You are welcome to get acquainted with the winners 2008:

Flock lamp,designed by Julia Lohmann. Oh my God, it looks really terrible! Who would dare to hang such a thing in a house?

XXL chair,designed by Janneke Hooymans&Frank Tjepkema. One of the funniest things ever, truly disgusting.

Lamp-dog,designed by Fiona Jean Thomson. It looks like a beaheaded Queen, sad and terrifying.

Nature V 2.01 chair,designed by Draw Me A Shieep designers. Frankly speaking, I don’t think nature can create something as ugly as this thing.

Swell Lamp Design

angel — Thu, 14 May 2009 12:58:01 +0000

Everything amazing is completely usual and can be found around us. I am ready to bet that numerous artists draw inspiration from every day objects and situations, they simply don’t tell us about their discoveries.

For example, the following swell lamp was inspired by the physics of expanding and contracting materials and made by Paul Cocksedge. The swell lamp looks like a part of thermometer but after a closer look you can notice how unusual it is.

What is more, when switched it DO works like a thermometer. The thin glass-tube bulb is filled with a colored liquid and when it heats up it gradually rises in the tube, that is the time for the light to switch on.

Crossing the Line Between Light and Darkness

Studio Mango has recently invited their new chandelier. The following thing shows a vague balance between darkness and lightness and proves how ephemeral it can be. The chandelier is all things simplicity and contrasts. We used to think that lamps should be big, beautiful and sparkling but idea of this company is light above everything.

The chandelier perfectly performs its main function but it is lack of attractive details. The lamp is decorated with metal ball wires.

Love the way it looks!

Jesus Floor Lamp

angel — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 14:02:00 +0000

It is such a pleasure to have this lamp since it can bring not only light but a lot of fun. What I am talking about? Just place this nice floor lamp behind a chair or sofa and let your friend sit on it. This person will look like a saint, and the lamp like a halo. Apart from entertainment it provides enough light for reading or working.

The lamp has been created by a Mexican designer Ricardo Garza Marcos.

Book Shelf Lamp for Night Reading

angel — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 09:22:59 +0000

Believe it or not but I can’t fall asleep before actually reading at least a couple of pages from my favourite book. But afterwards, I mean every morning, I “enjoy” such a mess on my night table. I hate it but there is no way for me to get rid of the above-mentioned habit – I DO adore reading books before sleeping. And, hurray, finally I know the way out – that is the Book Shelf Lamp($40) that comes with a base with built-in scrolling bookends that will always keep your literature neat and within your reach.

Collection of Funky Wooden Objects

angel — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 13:07:59 +0000

Sometimes I really wonder how creative people can be … How could they do things which they do. They are amazing and so damn talented. For example, a simple wooden peg can be …

… a super cool and nice pencil that will always put smiles on faces of your colleagues …

… a functional and reliable hanger to hold your clothes on …

… a tiny and convenient knife to make tasty sandwiches …

… and even a cute bedside lamp …

It’s great, isn’t it???

Martyr or Energy Saving Guy

Have you ever been thinking why lamps are so simple and is there anyway to make them brighter and more sophisticated? I have but to my mind representatives from the Play Coalition have thought even better. As a rule, their things are functional and funky. They are always one of a kind and will be the main center of attention.

The following lamp is about energy saving process as well. Believe me the first reaction of your visitors will be – ouch! What a cute thing!!! Enjoy Martyr!
