Roofer by Benjamin Hubert

Benjamin Hubert will launch a new series of lighting called Roofer for Italian lighting company Fabbian . Inspired by roof tiles found in Marrakech a single “tile” is used to clad various steel frame works. This allows for different shaped lamps to be created from a single tile. The consumer can build their own lamp from a framework and selection of different colored tiles, allowing for customization as the end user becomes part of the design process. The tile is manufactured from a flexible silicon polymer which both allows the module to be formed around a compound curvature framework as well as allowing some light through its translucent structure

Taxing Art: The T228/89 Table

Taxing Art is an interesting concept designed by Beta Tank. Taxing Art was created as a representation of the relationship between design and art and bureaucratic policies.

Their website explains: “Our Taxing Art research explores the convoluted kingdom of taxes and international customs laws, which continue to define man-made objects and creative practices against archaic categories.”

The T228/89 Table is made using 119 rotating pyramids. This sequence of photos highlights the quick transformation that the table takes from design object to sculpture.

Because, as Beta Tank states, it can never be both – in legal terms.

Beta Tank is a team of conceptual product designers. For more information on the Taxing Art project, check out their website: http://www.betatank.net/taxing-art.html
