Product Design Classics.

[bartelby]

I'm about to start decorating the back bedroom (well more of a computer/music room) in my house. I was thinking about lighting and decided I wanted an original George Carwardine / Herbert Terry Anglepoise lamp as I think they're fantastic.

What are your favourite pieces of product design?

Mies van der Rohe's Day Bed.

Comfy and sensual. 😀

My folks have a Eames chair/ottoman that is quite lovely.

I have an Anglepoise, it's a great lamp

The iPod will go down in history as a great design.

Admittedly some of these are not attainable for the average consumer and won't fit in your back bedroom but they are great designs (with no British bias at all 😉).

I love this kind of lamp. Don't know why, but it may have something to do with that pixar short.
