From Tronconi Design, the Mirage fluorescent table lamp is a fresh idea by Lorenzo Longo – De-Signum. The lamp is an optical illusion, a hologram representing the archetype of the table lamp. The front diffuser shows the hologram, while the opal back side spreads a powerful light ideal for reading. Available in white, black or violet. Check out more here.
Its official, I’m on a watch kick and I’ve just discovered Mr. Jones watches from London. Specifically the new limited edition Accurate black PVD model has caught my eye. According to the designer, this is the most accurate wristwatch you can buy – the hour hand reads “remember”, the minute hand “you will die”. Might be a tad EMO but its definitely different. The dial and rim of the glass on the Accurate is mirrored, so that the wearer is reflected in the watch face (so that there is no ambiguity about who the message is aimed at).
A statement from Crispin Jones about the design of the watches: “Today everyone has a mobile phone to do the really functional timekeeping, this means that the wristwatch is free to do something a bit different. The watches I design reflect and comment on society, both on the role that time plays in all our lives and also on the social impact of technology. Of course because I would like people to wear these watches, I also work very hard to make them beautiful objects in their own right.”

Nike and PlayStation first got together over 4 years ago to create the PlayStation AF1 and now they’re back to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the PlayStation 2.
This time, Nike issued a small run to coincide with the 10th Anniversary of PlayStation 2’s launch in Japan. As you can see, they didn’t just simply rerun the shoes, but updated them. The 10th Anniversary shoe features a full patent leather upper and standard AF1 liner. Less than 50 pairs were created this time around and will be given to media, Sony execs and other VIPs. As it was last time, the folks at PlayStation have made a pair available for charity right here and all the funds from the charity will be donated to www.shoesthatfit.org.
