New York architects and industrial designer brothers Granger & Robert Moorehead have developed a particularly amazing screen system for their interiors made of CNC milled panels.  Fully modular in conception, this bubbly screen design is an inventive way to divide up space in large spaces without sacrificing design or originality with something as brutish as a flat rolling partition.  Further, the fact that the screen is made of metal is always appealing to the creative contemporary interior designer: it would be clean, go well with a lot of different colors, lighten up a dark room or even out a bright room.  What’s most interesting about this design is that it fits two separate needs for a screen partition: it can both easily divide the room and serve as a creative interior sculpture.  In fact, the accents you’ll get with this screen from creative lighting schemes alone would make it worth trying out on your next design assignment! – via

The designers at Shige Hasegawa Design in Tokyo have developed this interesting, nature-inspired table and lamp set which is designed to focus in on a sense of tranquility and inspiration through simplicity.  ‘Hana’ actually means flower in Japanese, which is pretty clearly the inspiration for these products:  first, the Hana table, inspired by origami, is constructed from five flower pedal-shaped plywood legs which collectively hold up the glass table top without the use of additional screws or bolts.

Second, those with a green thumb and a good sense of style will fall in love with this unassuming, graceful lamp design.  The charming, fabric-covered lamp design, Hana Stretch, is subtle and stylish and would make a great addition to a simplistic atmosphere in dire need of creative mood lighting. – via
