Friday Five with Luca Nichetto

I met designer Luca Nichetto this past September when Foscarini invited Design Milk on a trip to its home office in Italy, and a tour of the Venice Biennale . Nichetto was one of four Foscarini designers, including past Friday Fivers Vicente Garcia-Jimenez and Ionna Vautrin , to join the group of bloggers to discuss not just their own works, but the hallmarks of good design overall. In addition to creating five lamp styles for Foscarini , Nichetto has designed items in pretty much every home category, including furniture for Casamania and Moroso, Venini vases, and even a porcelain sink and tub. For Friday Five , Nichetto revisits his youth and looks around at his everyday world.

White & White Clock by Vadim Kibardin

The White & White Clock is designed by Vadim Kibardin and is meant to be a three-dimensional version of a traditional digital clock. We featured the original black and white incarnation years ago , but this new updated one is even more fantastic. It’s wall-mountable or props up on your desk or table with the attached kickstand

Ike Stool by Studio Dreimann

Studio Dreimann presented its Ike stool during Stockholm Design Week – a simple stool that was inspired by a burst pipe. The foot is made form a steel pip cut into three sections and then bent by a machine. The oak seat screws into the base and can be adjusted. A small hole allows you to rotate the seat  up and down with your finger. Share This: Twitter | Facebook | Discover more great design by following Design Milk on Twitter and Facebook .

Primary Clock by David Weatherhead & GOODD

Made from Douglas fir with a screenprinted face, the Primary Clock was designed by London-based David Weatherhead and GOODD for Thorsten van Elten . The circular clock comes in two styles, one with a half circle of color and the other with segmented blocks of color. The half circle style can be hung three different ways displaying the color part either on the bottom, the right side, or at an angle.

Favorites: B-LINE in Milan 2012

Italian design company B-LINE is launching quite a few products in Milan at Salone this year, but I have my faves… The Park chair, designed by Neuland IndustrieDesign is the perfect modern stackable for the summer. The Liquorice bookshelf designed by Alessandro Masturzo looks like little tubes joined together like a package of Twizzlers. The Dock coat hanger shelf by B usetti Garuti Redaelli . I like how the hooks are nicely hidden and there is a shelf for all your other odds and ends. You can use the exterior to post notes, too

sheLLf by Ka-Lai Chan

Dutch designer Ka-Lai Chan has produced a limited edition of the SheLLf bookcase for Kristalia that will only be at Salone Internazionale del Mobile . I really like the cool visual effect of the shelf growing big in the center and tapering on the edges.

Showtime Vases by Jaime Hayon

Spanish designer Jaime Hayon created these Showtime Vases for BD Barcelona Design back in 2006 and I still get happy every time I look at them. The entire Showtime collection (which features furniture as well) was inspired by old MGM musicals, therefore all of the pieces are both classical and playful. Each two-piece vase is made of enameled stoneware porcelain that comes in either all white or your choice color with a white interior.

GVAL Chair by OOO My Design

The GVAL Chair, by OOO My Design , is as multifunctional piece that can be (are you ready for it?) a chair, a chair with a footrest, a chair with a footrest & a stool, two chairs, or a chair and two stools. Inspired by the rings of a tree that represent age, the GVAL is made from alternating sheets of bent plywood that create a similar ring-like pattern. The two footrest/stool pieces fit perfectly inside the chair for easy storage
