Glassy Library

Glass Library is a lighting scheme for a library set inside a three-level split glass building. The ambient lighting is kept soft and even, so reading stays comfortable as daylight changes. Concealed LED strips inside suspended steel rods create a flowing halo. Recessed floor uplights emphasize the column and the feature wall, while custom recessed accent lights highlight the artifacts. A photo sensor near the glass curtain walls balances interior light levels during the day, as no dimming system could be used.

Yizheng Comprehensive Gymnasium

Yizheng Comprehensive Gymnasium is a lighting design for a public sports facility. The facade of the main building is made of tens of thousands of carmine ceramic rods, fixed with an original construction method developed through repeated full scale tests. The lighting follows the concept of a city gift box and presents the gymnasium as a crystal box that glows from inside to outside at night. Light with a warm color temperature is used on the main building for a soft appearance. Brick lamps at the base of the pillars guide visitors and reduce glare.

30s

The 30s Wine Glass by Saara Korppi is particularly designed for white wine, but it can also be used for other beverages, too. It has been made in a hot shop using old glass blowing techniques, which means every piece is unique. Saara’s goal is to design high quality glass that looks interesting from all angles and, when filled with liquid, allows light to reflect from different angles adding extra enjoyment to drinking. Her inspiration for the 30s Wine Glass comes from her previous 30s Cognac Glass design, both products sharing the shape of the cup and playfulness.

Polyhedral

Polyhedral is a modular refrigerator that combines a wine cabinet with a food refrigerator. The design offers red wine storage, ice making and food cooling in one unit. The two modules can be turned towards different directions and are joined by magnetic attachment. A unit placed between a kitchen and a living room can therefore serve both spaces at the same time. The overall size is 1034 by 500 by 1916 millimetres. The panels are made of fine brushed metal. An operation panel with a digital display supports simple control.

Multi-shaped Outlet
Tuesday, 24 February 2026

Fdo

Fdo is a power outlet designed to accept plugs of different shapes. About fourteen socket types exist worldwide, which creates difficulties for travellers and for buyers of imported appliances. Fdo is built from thousands of small metal pipes that shift to match the form of the inserted plug within seconds. A processor detects the shape and supplies the suitable voltage, and the same system keeps the outlet safe for children. The matrix holding the pipes is produced with CNC machinery. The outlet measures 110 by 110 by 50 millimetres.
