This was one of the past fairs definite highlights and it has been all over the design blogs over the past weeks: Flamp Noir. A genius idea: Have a lamp in a truly portable container, need it in the office, no problem, take it there. Want it in the living room – pick it up and drop it where you need it. It's a very straightforward design, a cardboard box – pretty similar to a wine carrier – with the quintessential shape of a traditional table lamp die cut and colored film to create a specific mood. size info: 13.75"x8.25"x4" (35 x 21 x 10 cm) and the fact that it is available in 7 fab colors, Colors: Blue, Green, Orange, Pink

This particular design has a silicone lid that securely attaches to the cup. The outside is matte and the inside is glazed. I prefer a version that Starbucks put out a few months ago. Their version is pretty much the same, but the outside is glazed (and of course has their logo) and the lid is plastic with a silicone liner to keep liquids sealed in. The key difference between the two is the price. "I Am Not A Paper Cup" is roughly $20 and the Starbucks version is $12. The upsides to either is that if you are a daily coffee drinker, you don't have to trash a paper cup and plastic lid every time you get take-out coffee. The downside is that both of them hold about 8 oz. - not favorable if you normally order a "grande" at Starbucks. Another issue for commuters is that it is not spill-proof or splash-proof. And finally, the Starbucks version CANNOT go into the microwave.

Here's a lovely idea for your table: salt and pepper shakers that look like buds and are sitting in a solid wooden 'pot' - think of it as a little salt and pepper plant. To use it, all you do is take out one of the buds, turn it around and shake it a little and you are good to go. Just place it back in the pot when you're done and your salt and pepper will always have a place to call home. Designed was the piece by the great guys over at Apiotek who have already provided us with the super smart Piece Of Cake. With the Salt and Pepper plant, the buds are hand made out of ceramic and the pot is solid wood.

You've probably seen a zen garden before, whether in full size or small for your desk, they are all about calming the mind and sharpening focus. Similar to a zen garden are balancing stones that are stacked to create a similar effect, it takes time and it relaxes and helps you focus. Why are we going there? Easy, this is inspired by stacking stones, except they are made to easily stack, taking the balancing act out of the equation. 3 stone shaped containers, the top white one is for salt, the middle dark gray one is for pepper and the bottom one is for a dipping sauce like soy. It's already beautiful as it is, but the fact that the stones have a different surface treatment, one is glazed and glossy, one is untreated and matt – is just another lovely feature to make this salt and pepper set even more special.

A hat formed out of separate pieces of wool fabric, so no additional heating or forming is needing after purchasing.

One side is made of oak, the other anodized aluminum (available in a variety of colors). But it between the two layers are tons of brushes (think like a centipede's feet) that hold whatever you slide into them in place. Keep your mail, important things, documents, or just blank pieces of paper in place.

Panoramic views, taken at normal eye level of Berlin, Paris or Los Angeles in one continuous print, over 13 feet (4 m) long, and roughly 5 inches (13 cm) wide. Shaped more like a border, wouldn't it be cool to have a stripe of Paris across your wall?

No more wondering where you put the mail key, or which key is which for that matter. Color coded velcro hangtags to mount on the velcro organizer. Tres organized!

There is something to be said about bells and whistles. Sure, an alarm clock that awakens you by saying ‘good morning' in five different languages is certainly impressive, but it isn't all that necessary. And honestly, the thing we care about most when it comes to a clock are the numbers. They tell us when we're late, or on time—for once. That's why the numbers clock is so great. Stripped down to the most basic and necessary components, you can stack and rearrange the time as you please.

This candle is shaped like a classic candleholder with a candle inside - but the entire thing will burn down. "...the whole notion of a candleholder as a durable and precious product of utility is completely turned on its head. This gorgeous object is beautifully destroyed in the course of its use." Lovely.

Of course, his sophisticated designs are void of an actual piggy but still serve their purpose. "These ubiquitous objects need perpetual new ideas, new personalities and new character to be more animated," he says. "But in an abstract way, not as kitsch or literal redesign." This hourglass shaped bank, aptly named Time is Money, draws the important connection between the two valuable concepts. Much like the sands in an hourglass that measure time, the coins drop into the piggybank and build a tiny fortune when you practice a bit of patience.
