One Hundred Triangles Stool
No doubt it is a complicated form. The more you look at them, the more it baffles you. Designed by Riccardo Bovo, each of the stools has been structured from several triangular pieces tied together. The furniture collection is called One Hundred Triangles Stool which surely is different from any furniture design we have seen so far.
Orca Sculpture in Vancouver
In the past we have come across a variety of animal sculptures [some were made of Lego]. Once again we have something really exciting to share. If you find the killer whale exciting, then you could check out this rather unusual gigantic killer whale sculpture made by Douglas Coupland. Also known as Orca, this voxel Orca sculpture can be sighted at the Vancouver Convention Center.
Percy Lamp
Somehow this little lamp called Percy looks pretty cute. The shape although has been “inspired by natural forms and structures”, for me it is more like an extraterrestrial being right on your desk capable of shining light. [Okay, now enough with my fantasies...]. The lamp is made from sheet aluminum and “is powered by a highly efficient 1-watt Cree LED light source“. The head could be adjusted to shine light at multiple angles of your choice.
Waste Newspapers get new life in Paper Sculptures
For quite sometime we have been discussing about paper artworks and each time we were in for a surprise. It is amazing to see how people use their creativity in imparting paper, different forms, structures and figures which are absolutely unique. So again here are some…in short ‘paper sculptures’ created from an assembly of newspapers and books [which are slowly losing value in today's digital world].

Books in a way that you have never realised before
Wondering what is it? If I told you that these are a pack of books that have been bundled together and transformed into a piece of art, for letting them thrive with a new meaning, would you believe it? These are a few specimen from the collection of artist Brian Dettmer who with his unique skill makes sculptures, carvings and much more with books, that have lost their identity in this present world.
Now you could add hinges to your packaging boxes
If a little twist to an ordinary object could bring amusement to people in their daily life, then it’s a “thumbs up” for that design. X-tape is a sealing tape but as opposed to being transparent or simply colored, it has pictures of hinge which when used portrays a cheeky illusion that could fool the onlookers for a moment. Check out the pictures below and fall into the trap!
Lego Headphones
Did you think that this was even possible? Well…now you know that it is. The colorful Lego headphones has been carefully put together by a Lego and music fan from Instructables. It took about one and a half months to create this awesome Lego piece. The headphone can be carried along in a bag and can be dislodged and reassembled if and when repairs are required.
Geeky Pixel Keyrings
How about a keyring which ‘locks’ your keys perfectly in a bunch? Artlebedev Studio has one such keyring in store, that allows you to bundle a set of keys in a pixelated lock. If you are not interested in having a ‘lock’, you could also opt for a pixelated ‘key’. These pixelated designs are unique and are sturdy. In fact both the keyrings are fairly bendable and are made of PVC.
Lightsails in Austria
This structure is a Lightsail and is one of the many that has been constructed at different spots around the lake Millstaetter in Austria. An abstract form of sails, these have been designed to emit light as a “guiding symbol” similar to lighthouses. The purpose is to assist tourists in easier navigation around the exhibits, planned along the lake.
