Through the research and messing about, i've seen somethings that i kinda thought were interesting. The use of materials is rather interesting and it sorta sparked me to think. If i don't have the money to make the real thing out of the real material, i could always make a cheaper material look like the real thing. Now if only i could find these cheap versatile materials.
This clock is called the Wedge-wall clock. Designed by Linus Berglund. Very interesting recessed clock that plays a bit of trickery on the eyes depending on which angle you look at it from. This product is made with bookbinding fabric yet from a distance it looks like a heavy piece of concrete....at least it does to me.
Now something along the lines of my project right now. This is a bedside table that is combined with lighting made to save space called the Nod Bedside Night Light by IC design. Although the light is clearly not very practical for reading with or doing anything for that matter, it does look good and the simpleness works well. Since we just learned about rotational moulding this past week, i would guess that this is rotomoulded even though i can't inspect it for seems or touch the material. Again, not practical but the form is interesting and its function is also a good idea.
This is the Gubi Bedside table. Interesting used of plastic, i think acrylic which was bent using a strip heater and then the surface was covered with a thin wood veneer. Simple design and interesting use of the material to create space on the actual product. This is also not limited to just being put on the floor, since it's plastic, it is light enough to be wall mounted too.
