flos

lighting company flos features the chasen s pendant lamp designed by the notorious patricia urquiola in their current advertising.  the amount of light the lamp gives off can be altered by mechanically moving the slats which also changes its shape.  available in black or white.

the "wood" LED table lamp by fredrik mattson for zero, a scandinavian lighting company, reminds me of pacman.  very fun.  via dailytonic

fresh

blu dot, a midwestern company, won best body of work this year at the international contemporary furniture fair. they introduced a sweet new table lamp called rook. you can get it for $199 from the blu dot catalog.

enjoy it

whatswhat collective from stockholm showed some rad mixed media lighting at new york design week 2010. the pendant lighting's shape could be adjusted by pulling on its drawstring. this is the group's first project together and i'm sure we are about to see more. check out their very cool website here.

lean with it

icff studio and bernhardt design choose up and coming designers to present prototypes at icff in hopes of finding a potential manufacturer. one of my favorites this year was montgomery design's floor lamp. i love the extreme clean look with a hidden lighting element.

men in black

black is back. kartell threw a "welcome black" party on monday night during new york design week. featured was philippe starck's newest for kartell, the ghost buster chest of drawers, as well as his mr impossible chairs and bloom lighting by ferruccio laviani. watch out for the black trend. its in full force!

all lit up

spanish company lzf showed off some really nice handmade lighting at icff 2010. i especially loved the tilt floor lamp and the air table lamp.

work it

tom dixon has his factory workers at it again. the designer's exhibit at icff 2010 includes a table of workers constructing pendant lamps and votive candle holders on site that could be purchased at a reasonable price. dixon's signature mirror ball pendants were on display, as well as his new stacking peg chairs which you can get in an amazing saturated neon orange.
