Two freakin' great product categories at the NYC Gift Show that we've given names to are BabyMod and Sustainable+Beautiful home accessories.
Check out Oeuf's very "PrairieMod" convertible crib/toddler bed. It is a brilliant way to have one item replace two! Kudos to Oeuf because they believe strongly that while babies don’t need many items, they do need some essential pieces. Oeuf’s mission is to make those essentials practical and stylish, without compromising quality and safety - their top priority.
Also, worth discovering is MIO's Bendant Lamp, which is a flat-packed chandelier composed of a series of leaf-like shades surrounding a central fixture. Bend the shades up or down and create unique light and shadow arrangements. The philosphy behind the Bendant Lamp is very much in keeping with a PrairieMod Lifestyle:
Material and process guide the Bendant Lamp's design, making it a true example of eco-centric design. The size of the lamp, shape of the cuts and flat packaging are a result of material and manufacturing efficiencies. In addition, the lamp welcomes the user as co-designer pushing the boundaries of design and self-assembly.
We'll be bringing you more great finds from NYC, so be sure to check back later.
