Celebrating the Earth Day

Mad about Design dedicates today's post to the celebration of Earth Day and for the occasion chose as the protagonist the lamp Fulll Circle Vision of Atmosphere created by designers from Tools Design Claus Jensrn and Henrik Holbaek.
Full Circle Vision is a globe with a diameter of 30 cm and equipped with aluminum base. The political cartography in English language and minimal design is available in four colors: silver, midnight blue, almond, black sea and land silver.
This impressive lamp is able to bring us back to our childhood memories when we studied geography in school with the help of a map of the world and dreamed to know many places when we become old.

Chewing-gum or seat?

Hello design lovers! Here you can feel spring in the air, the days become longer and we would like to remain more outdoor.
Why not think then of furnishing our terrace or garden with a design element?
The first piece of furniture of the outdoor season for Mad about Design is Gumball, a seat of the designer Alberto Brogliato for Plust Collection.
Gumball is a seat ergonomically shaped and enveloping, reminiscent of a chewing-gum.
Suitable for indoor and outdoor both private and public, Gumball is a very original element that will be the protagonist of many moments of leisure.
Available in three variants: white or fuchsia lacquered rigid material, white or fuchsia soft resin or only in white including interior lighting.
  The variant with lighting can create a cozy and elegant atmosphere thanks to its soft light.

Buongiorno design lovers! Qui si respira la primavera nell'aria, le giornate si allugano e abbiamo più voglia di stare all'aperto. Perchè non pensare quindi di arredare il nostro terrazzo o giardino con un elemento di design? Il primo elemento d'arredo outdoor della stagione che Mad about Design vi propone è Gumball del designer Alberto  Brogliato per Plust Collection.
