Processed Paper is a project by Pia Wüstenberg that, thus far, consists of a folding table, paper lights and vases, as well as trestle legs. The table legs are made from rolled paper processed on a lathe. The legs are connected to a plywood top that folds to turn into a smaller table with a vase on top.

Growing Vases is a design concept created by Nendo in collaboration with Fabio Novembre for Czech glass and lighting company Lasvit . The abstract theme was “cocoon” and Nendo was asked to create something out of glass that was fresh and new, evoking the idea of new possibilities. They playfully created an installation that utilized the metal pipes used by glassblowers, still attached tot he objects they were used to make, however they turned the pipes into flowers and branches. The glass, then, became the vases in which these flowers were held “making flowers blooming in vases into vases blooming from flowers to represent the flower bulbs that draw nutrients from plants through photosynthesis and store new life.” Photos by Daici Ano.

These lovely vases make you think for a split second that you can touch them and they’d feel like soft drapery. Glass artists Eva Milinkovic and Kriston Gene of Tsunami Glassworks use hand-blowing and etching techniques to create solid vases with a softness. The glass itself reminds me of curtains while the pretty color schemes remind me of auroras. ©2010 Design Milk | Posted by Catrina in Home Furnishings | Permalink | 1 comment | Tweet This | Share on Facebook Glass – Crafts – Shopping – Facebook – Design Milk

These vases give a whole new meaning to industrial design. Made out of industrial materials with some colored lacquer to make them pretty, these vases add a complement new element of style to your home. What I enjoy most about the vases is the element of the unexpected.  Sure we’ve all seen vases before and most of us have seen PVC pipes at one point or another. But I never expected to see this, and that’s why I like it!  See more about these vases here.

RGB vases, by Oscar Diaz, will be exhibited as part of “Eyes on Spanish Design”, an exhibition about emerging Spanish designers. Organised by the ICEX together with the DDI, the exhibition will be taking place at 100% Design during the London Design Festival next September. The RGB vases combine the excellence of a process like glass blowing, refined through more than two thousand years, with references to the contemporary culture, were screens are extremely common, and its colors, based on the RGB color system. The vase works as a three dimensional pixel were the RGB colors overlap to create a specific color which appears only once the vases are nested. Each vase is made using the values of red, green and blue that make up the specific purple color (P242).
