German design studio Ding3000 presented its exciting new collection Animal Tales during Salone del Mobile 2008. The collection consists of furniture, luminaries and accessories, all inspired by the animal kingdom. The collection received a Special Mention at the Design Report Award 2008. According to the press release from the designers: The sideboard muli is inspired by a mule. The body is made out of solid oak and houses a big drawer and a shed which is accessible from the top. The angled legs leave the impression of the sideboard being „walking”. The cuco vase is a sphere with a beak-shaped opening glazed in copper and taking in the flowers. This design is inspired by the image of a hungry cuckoo chick. Characteristic feature of the floor lamp jirafa is the construction of the lamp´s base. The three legs differ in length and are attached to each other following a mathematic algorithm. Despite this technical design principle the lamp has a natural appearance and offers different impressions when looking at it from varying angles. The design is inspired by a giraffe.
