The Tofu lamp.

Tokujin Yoshioka's Tofu lamp

Tokujin Yoshioka’s Tofu lamp is beautiful, functional, absolutely minimalist and exceedingly expensive. That’s what you’ll get from someone who features regularly at MoMA, I suppose.

ABChairs – alphabets to sit on.

Excellent idea by Roeland Otten, though the ‘B’ and ‘L’ look kind of similar

Quad shelving system.

The Quad shelving system, by Nauris Kalinauskas
The Quad is a fantastic, modular shelving system which can store many different-sized objects and looks wicked too. The great part is you can actually stack them to create a bigger unit. The not-so-great part (for boys and girls on a budget like me) is that it costs US$2,000 a pop.

Most folks who visit random notes seem to hang around for about 9.516 minutes on average.

My name is and I fear my eyesight is failing, which may force me to increase the type size around here.
