This week's picks:

+ Vernissage.TV's Design Miami 2008 video, "For its 2008 edition, Design Miami moved from the Moore Building to a tent designed by the architecture and design firm Aranda/Lasch. This year, 23 galleries are participating in the fair and Design Miami inaugurates its own, curated exhibition entitled Beyond Organic: Design in the State of Nature". Via Dezain.

+ Anne Boenisch's Flake lamp at below the clouds, looks like concrete but is made of Frigolit (styrofoam).

+ Dutch illustrators and designers Parra, in conjunction with The Perfect Unison's, headphones at below the clouds. The headphones are made of Finnish birch by David Burel and "feels very much skateboard" per Google Translate.

+ Maarten De Ceulaer's Nomad Light Molecule at pan-dan, "Pick a magical atom of light from the molecule, and take it with you, where ever you want. When fully recharged, the spheres will give light for approximately 4 hours.".

+ Ilias Fotopolous' Listen and Record wallpaper collection at Design Milk with braille incorporated into the design. "Made using flock printed wallpaper the design tells a story in which visually impaired people can read.".

+ Amor de Madre's Encanal chopping board at David Report blog. "I like it because it is relevant and based on human behaviour. At least my own... Earlier this evening when I was cooking for my family I had to put some chopped onion in a saucepan. Some of it missed and landed on the floor... With Encanal it would never happen.".

+ The AirMAX Öko vacuum by AEG-Electrolux at Appliancist, the first green vacuum, "Equipped with a new 1.25 kW motor, the AirMAX consumes 33% less energy than standard 2 kW vacuum cleaners.".
