Tel Aviv designers DEMO / design clinic have designed a series of lamps using plumbing parts.

Here’s some more information from the designers:

KOZO lighting series by DEMO / design clinic – a unique design ‘with little authentic rust at the joints’. Functional light figures, designed for a wide range of indoor life scenes and atmosphere.
“With a bit of humor and a certain audacity, KOZO lamps stand as alien lighting figures, telling a new story”. KOZO lamps are made of galvanized iron parts and an original innovative (on/off) tap light switch, combined with the electronics and ceramic parts needed for it to house light bulb.
The KOZO parts come from around the world and each bares the trademarks of its origin country. The materials are left raw and alive, with little authentic rust at the joints and the marks from hand tools that were used in the assembly process

About DEMO / design clinic
DEMO / design clinic – is a cooperation of 5 designers sharing a studio in Tel Aviv. 3 years ago we all studied in the same design academy and during 2008 we finally opened our studio. We mainly use readymade stuff, and try to reduce manufacturing to zero. Our basic assumption is that there are so many things at hand that everything that you need must have already been made for you, and sometimes it is “built in” another product. In our designs we search to give new life and meaning to the materials and to their use. And always keeping it on the green side.

You not going to believe this but I have lost all day searching for some articles about this. I wish I knew of this site earlier, it was a fantastic read and really helped me out. Have a good one
After using a whole cocktail of sports supplements, and reading the advice here and on so many other blogs and websites, Ive come to the conlusion that I am totally confused. I mean, what really, is the very best sport supplement pre workout drink to use? Ive tried Jack3d and No Xplode and all the rest, they all seem pretty similar to me.
Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
Just had to tell you, I truly had great fun at this website. i find it to be refreshing and extremely instructive. wish there were more sites similar to it. At any rate, I felt it was about time I let you know, I am putting your site on my blogroll. Thanks once more for taking the time to put this online. I definitely liked every bit of it.
