The Bubble Tank by Sheffield-based design studio Psalt Design is one of those products that is beautiful, but makes me a little bit nervous. The first design in Psalt Design’s kitchenware-focused product line, the Bubble Tank is made of hand-blown glass and shapes in a slumping, molten shape that teeters on the edge of a table. Designed to provoke a reaction, the fish house is inspired by bead of water which was about to flow over the edge of the surface it was resting on. Inspiration also came from the distortion and illusion that can be created through water and glass. Taking into consideration the material and the fact it is resting on its counter-balanced weight, the fragility of the product is reiterated.

Håus Design launched their Monarchy collection during Valencia Design Week , made of basic yet timeless pieces including tables, lighting, and seating. King Harold is a table or desk with slots on its surface, designed to use some of the Håus Design lamps or potentially any other modular pieces. The Queen Margaret chair includes all the features of the other furniture in the set but has a small textile detail in the seat back. Little Eva is a modern LED task lamp that fits nicely into the slots on the surface of the Monarchy collection tables. The twisted cable gives it a more interesting silhouette.
