I earlier posted about Mina Wu’s bloom socket, a power socket made beautiful with flower decoration. Here are some more designs that ‘camouflage’ ordinary objects like power socket and electric cables. L’Esthetique electrique designed by Tjitske Hemkes is a series of products positioned in and around the power socket. They offer a poetic view on electricity in stead of the usual approach to the subject. Left: A small bird is charging itself to become ‘powerful’. Right: a dog’s head guards the empty power socket.

The cables become the pattern of this carpet designed by Britta Boehne. I just love this way of creative thinking, to make ordinary object in the house more interesting and beautiful!










My cats would tear that carpet to shreds!!
speaking of “camouflage’ ordinary objects” – you might also enjoy the “domestic patches” by 5.5 designers.
