Fiat Lux – Let There Be Light

Fiat Lux Lamp

I’m a big fan of practical design. When things serve more than one purpose it really gives me warm fuzzies inside.

Okay…enough about my warm fuzzies.

The Fiat Lux (“let there be light”) lamp by Swedish designers Cate Högdahl and Nelson Ruiz-Acal not only makes the perfect bedside lamp but it conveniently holds whatever magazine and/or book you might be reading at the time.

We’ll assume your precious reading materials are protected from bursting in to flames from the heat from the light bulb.

The base of the clock is made of wood and stainless steel while the number “tubes” are made of replica glass tubes really make the piece a smooth work of art.

Bakers Edge – Brownies for edge lovers

Bakers Edge Brownie Pan

Lovers of goodies like brownies can usually be divided into two camps…those who love the center and those who love the edges.

I personally am a center lover. Suer there are usually only one or two squares that are nothing but pure goodness in the middle, but for me they are the best.

I’m well aware that there are people who prefer the chewy edges (or crispy in some cases) and the folks at Bakers Edge have made a pan that caters to just those people.

The Bakers Edge Brownie Pan is an ingenious creation that makes sure every brownie has at least 2 sides of edgy goodness. It’s definitely one of those things where you punch your self in the face saying “Why didn’t I think of that?!?”

Rumor has it that they have other similar products in the works for other foods such as lasagna.

A single pan will set you back $34.
