CUBIC SWITCHPLATE (LIGHT) $8

The Cubic Switchplate was born in response to the economy. Its deceptively simple flat form made it easy to manufacture, pack, and ship. Sold to stores ranging form Think Geek to Uncommon Goods, and later branded for BC Hydro, the Cubic Switchplate was an effective, and affordable use of injection molding.

CANDLESTRIP $60

The Candlestrip was designed in response to a design brief for an ICFF offsite show inDisposed, and curate by Dan Rubinstein and Jen Renzi.

The Brief:

“As environmentalism has infiltrated contemporary design, durability and longevity have become the buzzwords du jour… rejecting throwaway culture to prioritize permanence over the ephemeral—while trashing the very idea of disposability. That’s our loss. After all, are disposable objects inherently bad? Doesn’t disposability have some redeeming social value?”

A blend of past and present -These candles, in the form of cords “plug” into to a base resembling a standard powerstrip. Designed by Kegan Fisher and Liz Kinnmark. Get them here!
