Objects with a dark sense of humor
Black diamond quilting over swollen, exaggerated contours, with a steel frame underneath. Marcel Wanders gave his Moooi dining chair a frightening name and then made it the softest seat at the table. Pull a pair up for Halloween night.
Mouth-blown opaline glass, layered like a jellyfish drifting upward, made the way Murano has made glass for centuries. Carlo Nason designed the Medusa in 1970; Established & Sons reissued it in 2026. Dim it low on Halloween night and the whole shade glows from the inside.
An old chandelier silhouette under an ivory veil. Simon Legald starts with a steel skeleton and sprays it with fine threads of elastic resin, the way a silkworm wraps a cocoon. The light comes through soft and indirect. Three sizes, each its own shape.
A dining chair with armrests that you can still slide close to the table. GamFratesi’s design for Gubi takes its outline from a bat’s spread wings, molded in one piece and set on wood or plastic legs. Seasonal by name only, so it stays at the table all year.
The light source never shows. Resident nested one borosilicate glass tube inside another and hid the LED in between, so the glass stays clear and only the bottom edges glow. It’s the one fixture in the Halloween edit you’ll catch yourself looking for.

What makes the perfect deep seat sofa? Something you can melt into after a long day, deep enough for naps, movie nights and curling up with the people you love. Here are ten we keep coming back to.
Part 2 of our Technology in Design series: we traveled to Japan to see how Karimoku builds furniture with precision machinery and a craftsman's hand."
New technology moves faster than most design conversations can keep up with, and most of what gets written about doesn't go into much depth. So we're starting a series: a handful of posts, each focused on one piece of new tech, how it works, and what it actually changes for the consumer.
