The Eliminator by Merve Kahraman is a desk lamp that uses shredded paper as its shade. It allows the user to totally customise the lamp depending on what paper the user chooses to shred.
At the base of the lamp is a plate that catches the discarded paper for easy disposal.
*Merve Kahraman‘s website has more images of the Eliminator as well other interesting projects
With the New Year, comes the need to clean and organize our offices and homes. And what could be better than a brand new manual shredder to get rid of all those incriminating, I mean papers with our personal details on them.
In the lead up to Christmas, for you guys with kids, the challenge becomes wrapping presents without the little darlings knowing, for everyone else, its wrapping the presents in new and innovative ways without creating a whole monstrosity of a present. I found these rubber bands shaped like Xs at the MOMA store that will certainly do the trick and the great thing is, they can then be recycled and used in the office for holding pens, cards or boxes together after they come off the presents. The Museum of Modern Art, also known as MOMA, is located in Midtown Manhattan and is dedicated almost exclusively to modern art since it was started in 1928 by Abby Aldrich Rockefeller (wife of John D. Rockefeller Jr.) and two of her friends, Lillie P. Bliss and Mary Quinn Sullivan.
