I just can’t get enough of Roman Signer, this video is called Rampe. You can see 32 more of his films and videos at the Hamburger Kunsthalle (Germany) till September 27th.

To be able to read the Water Clock by Kyouei Design, you’ll have to let the white and red ball float in water. Inside the ceramic base are 2 magnets who rotate, those attract the 2 balls. The red one shows the hours, the white one the minutes.

Héctor Serrano Studio designed this installation called Waterdrop for Roca. Hunderds of sticks with a light on top, can move up and down. Together they can mimic a water surface. This effect was achieved by attaching those sticks to a flexible platter. In that way, the movement is very organic, water like. Have a look for yourself: the Waterdrop video.

‘A touch of Green’ is the title of the exhibition by Droog Design in Milan. Here are 2 projects that I picked out:
‘Table Tap’ by Arnout Visser. A simple and funny idea.
‘Massive Infection’ by Pieke Bergmans. She worked together with a glass blower to create these crystal vases who are pressed (still hot) onto the wooden objects and then leave black burned stains. This one of the best things I’ve seen for a while! She has a lot more projects like this one on her website.
