Sculptural Heaters - The Octocube (GALLERY)
The Octocube
 Published: May 8, 08
Comments: 3 Views: 1,898

The strange-looking Octocube was created by designer Vivien Muller. The contraption is actually a heater created entirely from a single, 90 degree elbow, and that’s quite remarkable.

“The Octocube builds up into a radiant heater with a large surface area, and the inherent flexibility and modularity of the elbow,” Yanko Design notes. “It is designed to be a sculptural heater that fits in with any interior.”

The Octocube is not entirely bad looking but it does remind me a little bit of the human entrails you see in a medical book.

UHG! I love this thing, I want four of these things, Why oh why isn't Yanko some huge manufacturer like Ikea? They do so much great stuff, and it's almost a let down now to see Yankodesign at the bottom of a post.

bedlamite, yanko doesn't do or design any of these things. Most their posts are by designers and student projects and concepts. Since they are so popular and cool, desigenrs usually contact them and send them the info about the designs. They report on the designs, but are not involved in the process at all, let alone manufactoring it
