An important category (read: commercially viable!) the winning Metal Petal Table Lamp can be oriented in several ways to allow the user greater control over the level of light. Made with powder-coated steel, it is designed for easy moving and repositioning. It is designed by Kris Aus of Autumn Products, a small, Sydney based design consultancy that aims to produce work that is fun and provokes a smile.

Kris makes pieces that bring a fresh take on traditional objects to the marketplace. Another entry from Kris is the Anemone (shown below),  a stool that doubles as an ice bucket, umbrella stand or as general storage. The works appeal to the design minded and to the everyday person. In general, the products are friendly, approachable and curious in terms of style, texture and materials.

Howard Napier (thanks Mac!) sent this photo and we couldn’t help but agree that it is too clever. How about you send us witty spaces you find? Just snap using your camera phone and email it to drunkondesign@gmail.com.

Who knows, we might get generous and give you a prize. Does anyone want wine?
