Unidentified Luminous Objects

If you’re like me, sometimes you suffer from the recycled blah’s. There are so many crafty products out there made from the same recycled items that over time it can get a bit boring.
This fantastic light fixture is just what I needed to pull me out of the rut. There is something very pure and lighthearted about the design. Composed of an old metal coffee filter and a jam jar, designer Angele Riguidel thoughtfully reproduced these items into a working light fixture perfect for a kitchen. With light as her inspiration, Angele seeks out vintage household items she can recuperate into what she calls ULO’s a.k.a. unidentified luminous objects.
Buy one of her ULO’s from The Collection, a small French boutique, pop in an energy saving LED bulb and you’ve just relieved yourself of the recycled blah’s! (85 €)

This is great, would love to have a house full of cultural nuance from the reused items of our lives — but used in a totally different context. It’s a way to make us think very differently.
