Gosh! I wish I spoke German, so that I could understand Sandra Haischberger’s website. Her work is beautiful, though, and speaks for itself.

Stelton is a Danish design studio founded in 1960. They produce very clean and modern housewares such as the Ship Lamp (left) and the Table Lamp (right). All of the Stelton objects are striking in their simplicity and thoughtfulness of form. The trait linking the entire Stelton line is the use of stainless steel in nearly all of their products, from moneyclips to coffee pots.

Interesting lamp made from resin by a chemical company (!), Asahi Kasei.

A cardboard lamp from Giles Miller of Farm Designs. I love the process (called fluting) he uses to bring out a design from within the cardboard. Fluting involves alternating the angle of the corrugation in a piece of cardboard to produce varied designs and patterns on its surface.

This is dorky, ridiculous, and cool all at the same time. A lamp by Austrian design duo Element made out of sun glasses. I like the shadows that it makes.

The Taraxcum ’88 suspension lamp is a 60-bulb light fixture that looks sort of like the Swarovski ball that drops at Times Square every New Year’s Eve. All you need to complete the show is a bobblehead of Dick Clark.
The lamp was designed by Achille Castiglioni and is carried at Moss in NYC.

That’s one nice looking chandelier. Columbia Glassworks was formed in 1996 in London, England, by glassmaker Edward Nevill and furniture designer Nick Blackmore. Their work goes beyond glass objects and fixtures – in 2000 they created glass corsets and headpieces for Alexander McQueen’s catwalk show.

This chair was made from a single sheet of birch plywood. It is put together without any adhesives (though they use screws to make connections). Ryan Frank is a South African designer currently based in London.
I don’t know why I like these, but I just do. Loot lights:

While I would never buy this, I like the playfulness of the light fixture. Ah, gone are the days of fairs and balloon sculptures. Designed by Thelermont Hupton.

Two Create is a London-based duo: Lucy Nunn and Tobie Snowdowne. They are a multi-disciplinary studio specializing in print and product design, though I think their best work falls within the 3-d design category.
