KIKS TYO x whyworks – Inspiration Backpack and Hipsack


KIKS TYO from Tokyo have teamed up with whyworks from Seoul to produce a dual purpose Inspiration Backpack and Hipsack. This is an interesting backpack design which integrates a hipsack into the bottom of the bag. Strikingly colored in bright red and black accents, this is a highly visible piece both on the streets or in the woods.

With multiple straps on the backpack and hipsack, the new pack is not only functional but aesthetically pleasing. Crocodile print panels add texture to the otherwise monotone bag, and the bag also features multiple pockets and compartments on the outside.

Offi Trundle Desk

Sporting a hidden second surface that expands out to double the desk’s already ample 56″ by 26″ top, it’s a great solution for those who need to spread out to get tasks done. Plus if you’re the messy type, your entire work area cleans up easily by just sliding the drawer level back in as opposed to really tidying things up. Cable management slots in the back of the desk also make wiring a cleaner, and easier affair. Even more importantly though, this desk is made in the U.S.A. from sustainable raw materials from North Carolina.

KENN:



London based designer Kenyon Yeh has created the UNIKEA (Unique IKEA) collection.

Kenyon says:

This project seeks to create personal identity from ubiquitous uniformity. I have assembled the pieces from a standard IKEA flat pack without following the instructions or I can say threw away the instruction. Instead, I have simply composed the kits into customized furniture to suit my personal preference, adding some new details along the way.

The piano table



The piano table by Georg Bohle is apt for urban settings where scarcity of physical space often hinders the pursuit of finer interests. Linear in design, the piano table is a world apart from its typical cumbersome arrangement.

Created from oak wood, it is functionally designed to serve both as dining table and as an electric piano. Raising the wooden tablet reveals the piano keys, whereas laying down the same conceals the melodious aspect to offer a plain wooden surface. The piano table’s captivating neat clear lines, certain buoancy and plain polished appearance is destined to lend elegance and grace to its surroundings.

Its estimated price is $6000.

Martin Pitonak ‘Origami’ Table






Furniture designer Martin Pinotak’s ‘Origami’ table represents a wonderful combination of intricate design and functionality; combining the clean, dynamic lines of the tables base with a solid glass top make this piece a usable work of art.

Working out of Toronto, Canada, Pinotak’s work often exemplifies high design with an emphasis on maintaining the usefulness of a given piece. ‘Origami’ achieves this level of practicality without sacrificing the creative statements it makes; a piece of furniture that combines minimalist design with maximum function.

Chiara Goose ‘Cardboard Luggage’







Although it might not survive the abuse of your local airport luggage handler, Chiara Goose’s ‘Cardboard Luggage’ remains a stylish and playful piece that any weekend warrior can appreciate. Using surprisingly sturdy double-corrugated cardboard, metal rivets, and cotton cording, this piece has a level of craftsmanship and attention to detail that speak to both its usefulness and functional design.

The luggage itself ‘unpacks,’ forming a standing shelving unit to organize your various possessions, making the days of digging into the depths of your bag a thing of the past. Chiara Goose’s ‘Cardboard Luggage’ shows that just because your working in recyclable materials, doesn’t mean you have to recycle creative design.
