Joey Roth's Top 5 Picks of 2008
by Joey / January 4, 2009


1) Sovrappensiero: Scented Time
While I don't love the way this object looks, it articulates movement,
change, and the passage of time in a way I've never seen (or smelled).


2) L'Atelier A Francis
Francis' work is playful, but liveable. It avoids the irony that many designers use when they make fun objects.


3) Anafim Outdoor Cutlery
This cutlery set out to solve a problem and unintentionally ended up beautiful. My only issue is with the material choice - molded fiber would be perfect here.


4) Hardcore Finnish Design
I visited this show, and was floored by Yrjo Kukkapuro and Henrik Enbom's desk lamp. The LED array, aluminum armature, and thick concrete base make this a great example of the decadence-free luxury I try to achieve in my own designs.


5) Dress by Benjamin Graindorge
I love how these tables play with our perception of softness and solidity. They also invite the people seated around to tuck themselves in.
