So we are currently looking to include some ceramic components in a product we are set to unveil in the summer for Psalt Design. Whilst browsing Dezeen checking out some of the highlights of this years Milan Furniture Fair (and very depressed that I'm not there to see it all) I stumbled on this man and his amazing work. Its a really nicely shot video showing the hands-on process of creating his lamps. I also really liked the fact that the cracks on each one are unique. I want one.

Check out this video for 'Changing Faces'. Thought it was pretty thought-provoking.

I found this today and it made me smile. Thought it was a bit worrying that I own all of the items listed other than the beard and 'no-showering' rule...

I recently came across Tobias Wong and immediately fell in love with his fun and playful style of products. I  liked his 'Indulgence' range as part of 'Just Another Rich Kid', in particular the 'Gold pills' aimed to "turn your innermost parts into chambers of wealth" or make you shit gold! His gold-plated Mcdonalds spoon was also pretty epic.

I also thought his 'Kevlar rose' and 'money pad' were cool and along with most of his work carried a strong message regarding consumerism and modern day society.

Tobias Wong died at the age of 35 in a suspected suicide although many believe he hung himself whilst sleep-walking. Whatever happened, Tobias Wong was without doubt a great talent and in his short career brought a lot of happiness to a great number of people whether it be described as design, art or a balance of both.
