New Design Canada featured five Canadians side by side. We saw Pascale Girardin’s large wall lighting installation at IDS and Geoffrey Lilge’s L40 chair earlier this year. All new, Dan Planko Design’s furniture, that’s his mirror above, and ROLLOUT custom wallpaper to the right above. After the jump, the 5th Canadian Tsunami Glassworks.
Ingo Maurer’s SoHo space was the site for new lighting during ICFF. The Tu-Be pendant light that Maurer designed with Ron Arad featured toothpaste tubes in much profusion. There were plenty of versions of the snakelike Alizzcooper lamp in pendant, table and floor models. Some were even threatening the rats in the Seven Rats installation created in honour of the year of the rat, a time of plenty and a good time for new beginnings. All of Maurer’s new pieces are a delight to take in, but the Early Future table lamp and the Flying Future overhead are of special note. Maurer worked in conjunction with Osram to create pieces that use modules of organic light emitting diodes, a new polymer technology.

The Pac-man’s Ghost Lamp. This 80’s Ghost Lamp designed by Brazil’s designer Anderson Horta. The ghost shape looks cute, and availbe in white, yellow, red and blue color. ” This lamp is for those who lived the 80’s magic days! “80’s Ghost” is too a joke with the fear of ghosts at night, what scared every one in childhood, bringing this fear font as a nice and funny object to our lives.” Anderson said.
