Spanish design brand Almerich has collaborated with Barcelona-based designers Tom Allen , Christian Vivanco and Yago Rodriguez on a new reading lamp called Monsieur. Connecting the reader, the light and the book, the designers researched the strong emotional connection between the user and the intimate experience of reading. I like that between the name of the lamp and the design, it almost looks and acts like a butler, catering to your every reading need.

It never ceases to amaze me how many awesome international design collectives there are out there to help boost the careers of young designers. I feel like they’re more popular in the UK and Europe. I get excited when I see new international design from lots of talent all in one place — this is why I blog. Thus, when I got an email from Made Out Portugal I was overjoyed. Made Out Portugal is a design platform for Portuguese designers working outside of Portugal that acts like a collective rather than a brand

Materials: Vinyl Description: Update: 31 Oct 2010. Gert of Mykea sent me an update to what was published (previously submitted by an enthusiastic student) to tell us a bit more about their vinyls especially designed for Ikea furniture. ~ Jules Furniture by IKEA is good priced and well designed. But we don’t like the fact that we see the same Ikea interior everywhere around us.

De Intuïtiefabriek (The Intuition Factory) is a collective of 4 female designers — Amba Molly , Carolina Wilcke , Eefiene Bolhuis and Eva Gevaert — who recently graduated from Design Academy Eindhoven. Collectively, they focus on tableware, and their new project, Metropolis was recently exhibited at the DMY International Design Festival Berlin. Metropolis creates a fantasy world out of tableware: vases become buildings, flowers become bridges, bowls become valleys and spoons become ladders… Photos by Ine van den Elsen . © 2010 Design Milk | Posted by Jaime in Home Furnishings | Permalink | No comments | Tweet This | Share on Facebook
