It's Great Design

Infinitum

Infinitum is an arduino-powered table that turns on when items are placed on it, and which turns off when they are removed. This infinity mirror table is designed for people who never tidy up, but leave their belongings everywhere. Lou decided to design a table that would light up when objects were placed on it, giving people a beautiful backdrop for their objects and the illusion of an infinitely deep hole in the floor. The table is a set of plexiglass mirrors, set up so that the LEDs between them reflect an image back onto the fully reflective mirror.

The Edge Beirut

The Edge - Beirut Collection is inspired by the designer's home-city, Beirut. It is an interpretation of a city that is vulnerable yet resilient and adaptable. It reflects a city on the edge through the contradiction of solid yet malleable steel designs. It turns the concept of the hardy steel material on its head by twisting, bending and folding it, all the while retaining its sharp edges. It engages the precepts of Middle Eastern geometric patterns. Despite the challenge of an undeveloped manufacturing industry, these limited edition steel designs were handmade by artisans in Lebanon.
