Magnus Gjoen‘s prints examines how to change peoples relationship and preconceived notions of objects.

“This lamp is made with the tail fins of a 100-lb bomb from the Korean War. Paint and corrosion are removed to expose gleaming steel, interrupted by rough machinists marks from the factory. The interior of the fins retains the original turquoise paint, for a subtle wink of color. Finished with a polished nickel socket, elegant cloth-wrapped cord, and a natural linen shade.” On sale here.

The Head Hand Bag enables its (females) users to experience a sense of victory without the need for violent action. This project explores the ability to translate an object into a story and a story into a product. The biblical story about Judith and Holofernes and its visual representation from the Renaissance were inspiration for the design of the bag.

Tipsy Glasses, designed by Loris&Livia:

“They look a bit out of shape, a bit wrong, just like the world around you when you get tipsy!
The original Duralex Picardie glasses (250ml) were put in a kiln at a very high temperature until reaching their melting point. The process resulted in a slow deformation of the glasses caused by gravity while preserving their original identity.”
