Pieke Bergmans’ Light Blub crystal lamp, “a light bulb that has gone way out of line. Infected by the dreaded Design Virus, these Blubs have taken on all kinds of forms and sizes you wouldn’t expect from such well behaving and reliable little products.” See the designer’s website for more: Pieke Bergmans: Design Virus.

I enjoy the whimsy of work like Bergmans—she reminds me of Maarten Baas, who also approaches iconic and classic product designs and forms with new manufacturing processes and attempts to create a sense of “personalized mass production” (as Bergmans puts it).  Is this a part of the Eindhoven curriculum?
