‘Being struck by a thunder out of blue sky’

- you can see how this old korean expression can be interpreted visually :)  at London Design Festival 2017
Designer Jiyoun Kim "translates ‘being struck by a thunder out of blue sky’ into his latest project, the Lightning Lamp . The phrase describes people confronting unexpected catastrophic events and encompasses the message of overcoming challenges during the course of ones lifetime by changing their outlook."

My favourite colour is this one:

Bulgarian designer and researcher Ninela Ivanova and British deigner Sebastian Cox have teamed to create something quite unusual - lightweight, compostable stools and lights made from green-wood waste bound together with mycelium fungus. Their project Mycelium + Timber can be seen at Somerset House  as part of Design Frontiers exhibition during London Design Festival 2017.
