Niklas

Uno de los mayores logros que puede tenir un diseño es su versatilidad. El poder usar una pieza para múltiples funciones permite que sea el usuario quien decida para qué sirve un objeto, y no al contrario. Este es el caso de Niklas, un prototipo del estudio Sternform, un estudio joven, pero que tiene en su haber ideas brillantes como ésta.

Niklas is a porcelain sphere which is glazed on its inside. It has a spacious opening with a mushroom like sector to hang it up and a plane foot. The sphere can be used as a lampshade just by hanging it up over a common bulb and its cable. All kind of foods and dishes are presented and staged beautifully due to the uprising backside of Niklas. If salad servers or soup ladles need to be used, they can be arranged practically inside the mushroom like sector. Niklas also serves as a flowerpot, standing on the gound or being hung up with a knot in the hanging rope. Apart from many other ways of using Niklas (arranging buffets, birdhouse for the garden) one is still worth mentioning: Its use as a lantern, standing or hanging inside the house or in the garden, preferably in a little crowd, with each of them glowing softly in the dark.
