Unveiled during Milan Furniture Fair in April, this glossy retro style collection comprises a writing desk, a chair, a wardrobe and lighting. The Pompon Lamp features gold strings which one wants to touch. The Homework desk offers very interesting way of storage. Turn your table into a source of curiosity, because everybody wants to know what you are hiding in those mysterious folders. A wardrobe is the usual and convenient way to store documents, useful things and even clothing. The Homework Cabinet resembles a accordion, whose size varies as the filling. The Homework Chair features hi-tech yet retro-look mechanism zooms in and out with the help of a sleek handle, while the brass wheels dance all over the place.

Fruit Design – Cherries Lapm by Nika Zupanc

Do you like juicy cherries? Nika Zupanc created a beautiful collection of lamps, which resembles a cherry, so it was called Cherries Lamp. Ordinary and extraordinary at the same time, the lamps are made of glass and fasten on a metal tube. Due to their shape, cherries will look great in modern dining rooms or kitchens. You can choose among one, two or three "cherries" on the "branch". The range of colors is very rich and lamps are presented in bright, unexpected colors. No doubt, these items will enliven your interior, but frankly speaking I’m not sure of lighting quality.

Xuan Lamp by INNOVO
Chinese design company INNOVO has created the collection of  original pendant lamps. Xuan, that means disorder, could brighten up any boring interior and add natural motifs. Looking at the photo, you can hardly guess that the lamp is made ??of bamboo. But it's true. The bamboo has been cut into very fine and smooth slices and twisted accordingly, giving the design a delicate appearance. And I should note one more interesting feature - Xuan can turn into a dancing lamp. If you just open the window, you'll see  fluttering and dancing  fibers of bamboo. Visit the designer's site here.
