1. The Seiko Mai

Meet the Seiko Mai, a scaled-up version of the Japanese watchmaker’s famed SKX dive-watch collection. Designed, instead, as a tabletop clock, the Mai has an aesthetic that isn’t easy to miss.

Why is it noteworthy?

It’s pretty impressively true to its inspiration and comes with the numbered bezel sitting against the clock’s minimalist body. The bezel doesn’t rotate, but the clock DOES come with a night feature that mimics the original, and an alarm function that can be toggled from the back, and snoozed on days when you just want those 5 more minutes in bed.

What we like

The clocks are portable for travel, running on a single AA battery, with a quartz movement on the inside and a silent sweeping seconds hand that eschews the annoying ticking sound found on most table clocks

What we dislike

Caters to a niche taste and preference

2. The Air-Shape Lamp

It’s not difficult to deduce the inspiration for this work of art that’s also meant to be a design for an actual lamp. Many of us would have had fond memories of blowing bubbles through circular devices, sometimes screaming in glee as each ephemeral sphere floated and then popped. There is something otherworldly about bubbles as they display the different colors of the rainbow on their translucent surfaces

Why is it noteworthy?

It is this emotion that the Air-Shape concept design tries to capture in an almost ethereal manner. It’s as if the bubble is frozen in time, stuck at the moment of its birth when it wavers and trembles against gentle winds until it takes its final spherical shape.

What we like

Has an element of uncertainty and fragility that also sends a message of potential and birthing
The Air-Shape lamp can be hung in different ways

What we dislike

Looks easily breakable/fragile

3. The Brume

Part sunset lamp (or rather, spotlight), and part incense burner, Brume casts a glow of light against your wall, while the smoke from the incense sticks helps create fog-like wispy patterns against the light, and simultaneously fills your room with a pleasant aroma to make you forget the world around you.

Why is it noteworthy?

The beauty of the Brume is its multisensory nature. It’s a lamp but more than just that. Designed to fill your room with ambient light while also helping you escape reality, the Brume does a wonderful job of being greater than the sum of its parts.

What we like

The light and smoke come together to remind you of the mountains, and the clouds at eye level

What we dislike

The lack of a height-adjustable design removes a level of customization for the user.

4. Two-toned Mirrors

Designed by Parisian studio AC/AL Studio for Petite Friture, these innovative mirrors feature transparent two-toned glass frames that cast out a stunning colorful halo on its surroundings.

Why is it noteworthy?

The mirrors are mounted through a unique hanging system, allowing them to sit at a slight distance from the wall, which enables light to pass through the stained-colored glass, projecting the colors on the wall the mirror is mounted on.

What we like

The varying color shades perfectly contrast one another, creating a stunning visual

What we dislike

Cleaning and maintaining the mirrors might be difficult

5. The Retro Candle Lamp

Meet the Retro Candle Lamp, a nifty, vintage-inspired lamp designed for your bedside table. Not only does it do the obvious job of lighting up your area with soft, ambient light, but its unique design also comes with an empty platform in which you can place scented candles.

Why is it noteworthy?

The warmth from the lamp helps activate the fragrance molecules in the candle, making it emit its sweet smell without needing to light it and potentially risk having an open flame right by your bedside!

What we like

The lamp’s light can be dimmed as per your needs
A handle on the top also lets you rotate, carry, and position the lamp anywhere without coming in contact with any part that may be hot to the touch

What we dislike

Some people do enjoy watching an open flame flickering, so this may not work for them

6. The Alada Desk

Designed by Daniel Garcia Sanchez for Woodendot, the Alada folding desk is a nifty space-saving desk that doubles up as a super cute decorative shelf. Within seconds you can transform the Alada desk into a display shelf that can hold your favorite souvenirs from picture frames to even potted little plants.

Why is it noteworthy?

Sanchez designed the Alada desk, as he witnessed an ever-growing need for smart and flexible desk designs for working at home. Since work from home is a pretty common norm nowadays, it’s important to have a transformative and space-saving workspace at home – one that can be neatly tucked away when your workday ends!

What we like

The multifunctional desk has also been equipped with hidden storage spaces when it is folded up, to provide neat hiding spots for your laptop and notebooks

What we dislike

Not suitable for people who need a larger and more elaborate working space

7. The Drift Gaming Bed

The Drift Gaming Bed is created specifically for those who would rather spend the entire day playing games in bed instead of going out to smell the roses or something.

Why is it noteworthy?

The bed has a built-in 43-inch screen TV with a 4K display at the foot of your bed that you can put away when you feel like sleeping. The bed also has other “features” that are still part of the dream scenario for gamers and video bingers. The headboard is the space to put all your remote controls, consoles, and headsets. There are even some USB ports on the sides if you need to connect or charge your smartphone and other devices.

What we like

Under the bed, you get an ottoman storage
There are also LED lights on the headboard and the edges of the bed for gamers

What we dislike

This isn’t the healthiest piece of furniture to have if you’re trying to wean yourself away from screens

8. BOOF

To elevate the pleasure of reading to a state when a book itself is the source of light, BOOF deserves a mention! Shaped like a house, the reading lamp basically comes on a metallic disk, but the fun is added when you put a book on top of its roof. BOOF, the lamp lights up, embodying the appearance of a house lit during the night.

Why is it noteworthy?

The subtle light on the window and the ground floor of the house light up when the book is placed on top. Here, the triangular roof serves as a natural bookmark for the book you place on it. The light is soft and inspiring which will allow you to focus on the handwriting you’re flipping through in the pitch-dark ambiance of your room.

What we like

Merges with the bedroom decor

What we dislike

Consumes space for being kept on a bedside table

9. The +CLOCK

Snagging the coveted Red Dot Design Concept Award in the Best of Best category, the +CLOCK is an automatic pill organizer and dispenser that functions like a clock but distributes pills at the time set by the user.

Why is it noteworthy?

The +CLOCK isn’t merely a clock. It’s more of a habit-building device that also happens to tell the time, hence the name +CLOCK for the fact that it’s also a clock. The gizmo sits on any bedside table and comes with an appearance comparable to the Tmall Genie Queen smart mirror. Underneath its large clock face sits a carousel featuring 28 slots for daily meds.

What we like

You can input medicines based on days or the time of the day, with the ability to fill up to 28 slots
Helps you build a habit to take your medicines

What we dislike

There is no reminder of when the medicines placed in the clock might get over, leading to a missed dose.

10. MAGEPAN

MAGEPAN is a concept for a small box that frees that socket from limitations. It’s small enough to pack inside your bag or even stashed in your pocket. And while it was designed specifically with the bedside socket in mind, its design lends itself well to other purposes.

Why is it noteworthy?

In a nutshell, it’s a magnetic wireless charger whose body plugs directly into a power socket, removing the middle man of a long cord. While that might not make sense in normal cases where such sockets are far away, hotel rooms are filled with such facilities that don’t get used that much because of their location.
