Up-cycle and Re-cycle Lighting
Up-cycle and Re-cycle Lighting
I found quite interesting examples of up-cycle and re-cycle lighting designs. They all show excellent sustainability and create unique and alternative atmosphere.
Ballroom Luminoso is a series of six chandeliers designed by artists Joe O’Connell and Blessing Hancock

I love this tiles design because of colours and texture. It also has very strong geometric shape. It is changing concept that all tiles which are applied on the wall have to be perfectly equal and flush. Hand finishing on the tiles is very artistic and unique and adds to the non-conforming application.

Lighting
Patterned wall
Wooden boards manufactured by CNC machine
Hollow partition wall.
I like this design because it incorporates natural lighting, ventilation and it improves the space. It is reminds me pattern from nature.
Textile Finishing Techniques

Three-dimensional patterns
Cotton and Flax

These unique design lamps are hand made following traditional Japanese techniques. This technique is called Shibori. This is created by twisting, folding and distressing the material to show the natural patterns. I like it because it is white and you can see shades and tones very well and it creates beautiful pattern. Also it looks very delicate and soft like a knitted cloud.

Burnt wood
Molten Aluminium
In-situ casting
When the first time I saw these furnitures I was amazed by them. I think is a beautiful peace of design, which combines two materials together: wood and metal. It looks like a peace of wood frozen in the metal. This is created by how well these two materials are joined.

This design is about how heat contacts with cold surface. This effect creates colours on the surface by chemical reactions.
I think this technology has exciting applications in interior design for the measurement and communication of temperature.
It would be very interesting and fun to have shower like that.
Drawing with Thread
Drawing with Thread
by Debbie Smyth, UK
I like it because it is very artistic but also incorporates textiles and the innovative applications. This is created by using pins and connecting thread. I think it is possible to create interactive walls for people.
