I know everything I am looking for is here, watch movies, watch series, education, games, exams, news, current events and many more.
The line between product design and sculpture has been blurring for years, but most objects still declare their purpose plainly. A lamp looks like a lamp. Its form is a familiar enough gesture that it becomes invisible, something you reach for and forget. The more interesting territory is what happens when a designer begins with…
Most lamps do one thing. They turn on. They stay on. And at some point, you turn them off and wonder why your eyes feel like sandpaper or why you cannot fall asleep even though you have been sitting in a dimly lit room for the last hour. Lighting is one of those things we…
I’ve always believed that the best lighting doesn’t just illuminate a room. It changes the entire mood of a space, the way a good film score changes a scene. And for years, the Melt collection from Tom Dixon has been one of the strongest arguments for that idea. Now, with the Melt Small Portable Light,…
Concrete’s default mode in product design is heavy, rectilinear, and a little confrontational. It shows up in candles, bookends, and lamp bases that lean into the brutalist reference, as if rawness is the whole point. That aesthetic works in the right context, but it rarely feels calm or considered at desk scale, where the goal…
The typical desk lamp is a metal stalk on a base that does nothing but hold it up, plus a switch somewhere along the cord. Most lamps are either on or off, with the base becoming dead weight that competes with notebooks, pens, and devices for space. EMIT is a concept that treats the base…
The classic desk lamp has remained remarkably unchanged for decades, designed around the assumption that each workspace belongs to one person who needs focused light in one direction. This made perfect sense when most work happened in private offices or individual study spaces, but modern collaborative environments have different needs that traditional lighting hasn’t quite…
Consumers have been a bit more conscious about the materials that are used in the items that they buy. This also means that product designers, well at least those that love the planet, are also thinking about how they design their items and what kind of materials can be recycled and upcycled. The WA table…
Picking up our phones in the middle of a work session or while studying has become a reflex that is almost impossible to resist. The smartest among us do not even try to rely on sheer willpower, instead turning to apps and services that promise to block out distractions. Sadly, these digital helpers do not…
A lot of product designers who are more environmentally conscious now are looking at sourcing recycled materials when conceptualizing new products. Consumers are also more curious about the ingredients and materials used to create products they are considering and for some, it plays a major factor in that decision. There is also a growing trend…
Star Wars Day (that’s May the 4th for the unitiated) may be over but if you’re a true blue fan of that entire pop culture universe, you know that every day is Star Wars day. You’ll never run out of things to watch and read and toys and merch to buy. As long as there’s…
