{ Beautiful objects by Seung-Yong Song }

Seeing beautiful and cleverly designed products always puts a smile on my face and these gorgeous objects by Seoul based designer Seung-Yong Song have done just that. I love his clever use of scale, materials and play between light and heavy, delicate and bold. The top image features his Rong portable lights and the bottom his V4 vases. Check out more of Song's work here.

{ Hanging Chair by MUT }

The Nautica Chair designed by MUT forms part of their 2012 product range, which was recently showcased at the Salone Internazionale del Mobile in Milan. Inspired by light reflecting on the ocean, this chair looks like the perfect way to sit back, relax and at least pretend like you’re on a beach holiday.

{ The Faceture Project }

FACETURE from Phil Cuttance on Vimeo.

I am totally in awe of this series by Phil Cuttance, which consists of vases, light-shades and tables. Each FACETURE product is made by casting a water-based resin into unique handmade molds, assuring each object is one of a kind. I love the dramatic triangular facets contrasted with the pastel colour palette and how artistic and authentic the process is, beautifully captured in the video by Petr Krejci.

The FACETURE project was created with the support of Creative New Zealand.

{ Chairs to Cherish }

These overdyed chairs by Anthropologie definitely speak for themselves! All I'm going to say is that they're AWESOME and I want one in each colour!

{ RAW perfection }

The RAW collection designed by Jens Fager consists of the lounge chair, side table and candelabra and is available through Muuto. My heart is aching to have one of those candelabras. Isn’t it just perfect? To see more fabulous Muuto products see this post.

{ Amy Hunting }

I am a huge fan of Amy Hunting’s work. Her Felt & Gravity collection was featured here. Above is her Patchwork collection and Blockshelf. It is utterly amazing don’t you think!? That patchwork chair has to be the most beautiful chair I’ve seen in a while!

{ Himmeli Mobiles }

These himmeli mobiles from AMradio couldn’t be more perfect! AMradio is a beautifully curated shop with fabulous vintage finds and mobiles, so go check it out, it will be well worth your while.

{ Luke Lamp Co. }

Awesomeness is guaranteed by lamp designer, Luke Kelly. His Etsy shop showcases a cool selection of industrial lighting ranging from hanging lamps to table lamps. He is also open to customised requests. Go check it out!

{ Clever Clockwork }

This must be the coolest clock I’ve ever seen! Designed by Christiaan Postma from the Netherlands, the clock tells time through artful evolution of lines which spell out the time from one through to twelve. These screen grabs can in no way do the clock justice, so visit Christiaan’s site to see the clock in action - it’s brilliant!

{ Knit Wit }

Oh my! I would love one of these knitted stools by Claire-Anne O’Brien. Inspired by knit stitches like rings and loops in exaggerated form, these stools are sure to be a talking point in any room. The tactile nature of these stools are so alluring, I feel like hugging them. Seriously.

{ I want some Muuto }

Muuto is a design company that showcases the best of Scandinavian design, with collaboration from selected designers from Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark.

Inspired by the Finnish word ‘Muutos’ meaning change or new perspective, Muuto creates a platform where designers are free to express their personal design philosophy and refreshing perspective of everyday objects. This design freedom fosters an environment where household objects turn into works of art and allows for a new generation of Nordic designers to be part of a notable Scandinavian design heritage.
