The Lightweight collection started with the idea to develop an alternative to shipping heavy lamp bases around the world. Instead you use heavy objects that you have at home to balance these lamps. The baskets are designed to hold stones (like gabions), books, perfume bottles, plants, postcards or other collections.
Launched as part of the Squirrel’s Electro Garden Party this studio-produced collection includes a desk light, a hanging light and three different floor lights, and is available exclusively from our shop.

We’ve collaborated with footwear designer Tracey Neuls for London's biggest design week of the year and it’s available exclusively at Selfridges.
The meeting between Tracey Neuls and Tord Boontje was one of those moments when the world felt very small despite one being Canadian and the other one Dutch. They found their approach to design to be uniquely similar despite Tracey being a footwear designer and Tord a product designer.
Previously in 2010, their like-mindedness resulted in a special edition shoe where Tracey used a printed fabric of Tord's - normally seen on furniture. This playful approach to design has brought them back together in 2012 celebrating.....Squirrels! As it turns out, both Tracey and Tord have a great liking for these inquisitive, clever, little town and country creatures.
Together these two designers have created footwear where time is suspended and there are no rules of play.
The shoes are like unique collectors items and this limited edition collection is available exclusively at Selfridges from August 27 – September 16 2012.
Cacophony, our collaboration with Laikingland that was launched earlier this year in Milan, is currently on show at Hackney House just round the corner from our studio and shop. If you're in the area, why not pay us both a friendly visit!
Hackney House is an urban pop-up space in Hackney's Shoreditch district which showcases the area's business and cultural offerings during the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
