flow - public light for the Third World
The bamboo lamp called ’Flow’ was born as a university design task and was completed in the frames of an international project. During the design process we intended to solve a serious problem of the Colombian seaside. Due to the lack of public lighting the busy beaches become abandoned and dangerous at night, as the electric network cannot be channeled to the beach. Additionally, our aim was to stand up against the trends in design and to create a real eco-product.
Designer: igendesign (Hungary)

Summerwind
The Summerwind armchair is an outdoor piece of furniture that you can use as usually in the garden, on the terrace, and you can also use it in your swimming pool, in the water. Indeed it uses the same technique of manufacturing as the maritime buoys, that is to say roto molding.
The armrests of the chair help for the flotation and for the balance of it on the water. Also, the small holes at the back allows water to come inside the seat to get the whole set stable.
Designer: John Nouanesing (France)
Material: HD polyethylene

CeramiX
CeramiX = (East + West)ceramics
China has a long tradition in the production of ceramics and especially porcelain while Europe has for many centuries tried to copy the Chinese in that field. Nowadays our world is invaded by Chinese products that in most cases attempt to imitate those Europeans… CeramiX is a reflection upon the irony of history through the world of ceramics.
Designer: ctrlzak (Italy)
Manufacturer: (Italy)
Inspired By: China & European Ceramics

Augmented Sculpture
The core of the installation is a 2,5m tall wooden sculpture that builds the screen for a 360° projection with virtual content. The projection constantly augments the sculptures outside within a 2:32 min. long, dramaturgically structured edit of video content to a track by musician Jon Hopkins.
The sculpture becomes a mirror of changing realities. As a result, a kind of real virtuality arises to confront virtual reality.
