"A deliciously rebellious mini hot plate", part of Nika Zupanc's I Will Buy Flowers Myself exhibit currently on display in Milan, is an appliance with a story. Zupanc designed the hot plate exclusively for Gorenje, a design-oriented creator of home appliances based in Slovenia. Per Gorenje "Mrs. Dalloway is deconstructing the myth that household appliances are only made for kitchens and housewives. Due to its unusual shape, it comes closer to resembling a fashion accessory than a kitchen appliance." More after the jump.

+ The Staypuff Crib by 20.87 Design Studio in São Paulo combines the base of a pushcart with a traditional crib. This very portable crib is a practical idea whose base is a combination of pneumatic wheels and metal and the top is of reforested Pinus wood.

ponton_wolf_udo_wagner.jpg
The Ponton fireplace fits into a frame that combines shelving and boxes that can be reconfigured as the need arises. When the Ponton is needed, it can be slotted into the top level and then re-placed lower down when not in use. The tempered glass and stainless steel fireplace is an urban campfire that can be used indoors or out. The bio-ethanol can burn for up to 2 1/2 to 3 hours with minimal CO2 emissions.

Maison & Objet 2009: Philippe Rahm

philippe_rahm_ventilation.jpg
Some of Philippe Rahm's new work is being exhibited in the VIA section of the Maison & Objet show in Paris which ends today. There is a very good-looking air exchanger made of wood and glass, as well as seating, lighting and heating components. The exchanger above, called Ventilation, is filled with slices of wood from trees found in the Parisian environs which perfumes the incoming air. His latest collection of seating, after the jump, is reminiscent of the beach: lifeguard chairs of varying heights and a low chair to set in the sand. Put all together, the parts make up a very serene sum.

+ Electrolux has just launched the new Inspiro oven that is billed as “auto-focus for chefs”. The Inspiro uses sensors to calculate the precise amount of time and energy needed to cook the food, just the way a camera works.
