Sputnik by Pepe Heykoop
DMY Berlin 2010: Dutch designer Pepe Heykoop presented bubbles of tape wrapped around metal frames at all our stories about DMY Berlin 2010 last week.
Called Sputnik, the collection is hand-made and each piece is unique.
Heykoop also presented chairs wrapped in fabric skins (see our earlier story) and was nominated as part of the Jury Selection.

Here's a tiny bit of text from Heykoop:
Sputnik is a papier-mache bubble trapped in a metal frame. The freehand production process determines the shape. The outcome is that they are all a bit different and so become family.
Sputnik carries an energy-saving bulb. Once lit up it reminds you of looking at full moon.
