System X


[Here comes the "conservative" posts after some wild stuff...] I got the new Metropolis this weekend, a ton of really cool stuff in this month's issue. Metropolis, I have to say, remains one of my favorite design magazines out there. Hope they have many 25 years ahead of them. Ross Lovegrove is on. The British star designer has been making organic forms for a while, but this bent X-shape fluorescent light designed for the Yamigiwa simply transcends the banality of 2X4 fluorescent.

It's hard to believe Lovegrove doesn't have his own website (I think he used to have), but BusinessWeek actually had a pretty nice article about him back last December.
