Stripped by Henry Ellis-Paul
Henry Ellis-Paul is a 24-year-old British-born product designer who is currently based in London. He has previously worked designing packaging, toys and lighting, and believes that an understanding of different areas of the industry helps him maintain a healthy approach to his work. Henry is particularly interested in products that challenge convention while not compromising on functionality. Creating designs that have character is important and something he likes to achieve in his work.
Stripped consists of two key parts; the seat strips and the arm-rests. By using putting these segments together tables, benches, seats and sofas can be constructed. The simplicity of the design means the furniture can be regularly and easily moved, altered or added-to to fit the space it’s in, as well as the activities that surround it. In short, Stripped supplies the customer with the building blocks to make a piece of high-end designer furniture.

I ♥ Yu, Naoshima Bathhouse by Shinro Ohtake
The Naoshima Bath house was opened on July 26, 2009 under the name of “I♥湯 (I love you).” Conceived by the artist Shinro Ohtake, this charming name softens the hearts of the customers before using the bathroom.
The project is particularly interesting because it blurs the distinction between art and practical daily life (the bathhouse can be used by locals, who pay just 300 yen rather than the standard 500 yen entrance fee to use it), between private corporations and public works, and between inside and outside.
The bottoms of the baths are lined with stones and collages of found images and shunga erotic prints that come in and out of view with the movement of the water.
Psycho Diagnostik Coasters
Just have a drink and use the much more subtle Psycho Diagnostik Coasters with Rorschach ink blot tests printed on each one. You’ll get a good idea of what she’s got in mind when she comments on these coasters. If she sees “a pretty butterfly” that’s harmless, but if she sees “two soul mates intertwined” then she’s probably already thinking about what the centrepieces at the reception will look like.

Making of SuperFoam Chair from Rich Gilbert on Vimeo.
What if we had the power to manipulate nature’s structures?
SuperFoam is a re-creation of naturally occurring reticulated foam structures through a casting process that facilitates designing the properties of the foam itself. By developing the casting process the properties of the foam could be controlled so the chair flexed and deformed to create a supportive structure.
