Designfenzider sit clearly on the border of conceptual yet functional design. Their playful pieces are at once strikingly different from conventional items, yet are all designed to be perfectly functional. Shown above is the curiously named ‘Dear Ingo’, a chendelier made up of 16 seperate task lamps.

Maija Puoskari’s work just looks natural, you can see and feel the elegant pattern and effortless simplicity. Shown above is a dish titled ‘Frozen’, you’ll have to check out her site to see why.

Sarah Van Gameren’s design explores the manufacturing process and how accidents can also be beautiful. She is currently the designer in residence at the London Design Museum. Shown above are samples of her work ‘Big Dipper’ which shows the process of creating candles using complex clockwork machinery. The results are amazing, with each ‘chandelier like’ candle containing it’s own individual intricacies.
If you’re in London you can go and see her work at the Design Museum or I noticed yesterday a big dipper machine in a shop next to Design Guild on Kings road.
