We have a clue about Furniture

London-based designer Phil Cuttance created a series of handmade black and white vases from discarded plastic, an extension of his Weld Furniture collection from 2009. Each vase is handcrafted and individually numbered and made using hot air welding that connects each plastic shape together. The ABS plastic that is used comes from discarded off-cut pieces from a local London fabricator

I’m not always a huge fan of red in interior design, but it seems to be growing on me. Grey, however, is one of my favorites, so that might have something to do with my fondness for today’s color combo of grey and red.

Grey and red together form a modern color scheme, and have an even greater effect when some crisp white is thrown in there. (Especially in the last image – it’s my fave!)

Designed by Portuguese designer To Martin, the REWASHLAMPS are set up on a photographer’s tripod so they are height adjustable. The “lampshade” is then adorned in a variety of different materials – ranging from ping pongs to feathers to corks.

Which funky adornment would you choose?

Materials: varde counter, boholmen kitchen sink, atlant strainer, edsvik kitchen faucet Description: When we were designing our first kitchen, I wanted to avoid chipboard as much as possible and have something sturdy. That’s why we decided to chose Varde kitchen. On the other hand our kitchen room wasn’t too big, so we had to save the place. That’s why we replaced one drawer in Varde counter with kitchen sink.
