Ikea PS 2006
by Justin Thomas, Virginia on 10. 7.05
Ikea challenged 28 designers to produce socially and environmentally responsible products using simple and repurposed materials. The designers made use of materials such as fish nets, recycled packing crates, bamboo and Indian newspapers. The designs are featured on the Ikea PS web site. Apparently, some of the products are already available in Ikea stores, and all items will be out by March 2006. These vases were created by Hella Jongerius, they represent four different cultures and continents, and are engraved or painted by hand. The price for each is $39.99. :: Ikea PS 2006 via Cool Hunting
I was at IKEA on Thursday and saw these vases. They were very nice. The one on the right in the photo has little holes in it (part of the design).
