Re-Imagined Furniture by Nina Tolstrup

Strek Collective is a group of four Norwegian designers who will be presenting a group of products as part of 100% Norway 2012 at Tent London . The team collaborates to create simple, yet versatile, well-made designs. The collection, which includes trestles, lamps, and storage pieces, work separately just as well as they do together. The trestles, named Wandering Lines , were designed based on their own need for tables and benches while exhibiting. Available in three sizes – for benches, tables, and clothing stands – the trestles are flat-packed and easily assemble or disassemble when needed

If you live in warmer climates or just have the desire to shower under a blue sky, you’re in luck because they aren’t just for beach houses anymore. The Oborain can be set up anywhere outside for temporary or permanent use and it easily assembles in 30 minutes. Handcrafted and made from sustainable hardwoods, the sleek design is meant to last for years and years of outdoor showering fun. The stainless steel frame polishes off the modern design and each comes outfitted with an Axor Citterio 3-jet showerhead. Available for one, two, or three people (insert you own joke here).

Ufo is a fun little object from Italian designer and illustrator Luca Cozzi . The multifunctional design not only acts as a bean bag-like place to sit, but it can also be used flat as a comfy place to relax on the floor. It’s made from two triangular pieces of gray felt that zip together to create a three-dimensional form. I love the red that peeks through from the zipper

Peter Jakubik , a designer based in Slovakia, designed a set of outdoor furniture inspired by tree stumps except made of a combination of rebar and wood. The original oval wood grain shapes are simplified and reduced into polygonal shapes and replicated to form the base through a bending and welding process. The tops are made of pine wood coated with a simple oil finish.

The Rotterdam-based duo Minale-Maeda created a collection of furniture designs that are completely downloadable – meaning you download the instructions and can get to work building them yourself. The Inside Out Furniture is a way of redefining how we, as consumers, have access to furniture. Instead of the manufacturing, transportation, and other costs involved in mass production, the line offers an alternative and cost effective solution to good design

Who knew that a light bulb made of wood could actually give off light? This wooden light bulb by Ryosuke Fukusada merges traditional craftsmanship with a modern LED device to create what appears to be a solid piece of wood shaped like a light bulb but which actually radiates light. The inside of the wood is chipped out until light can shine through.
