Rotterdam's Nightshop is the brainchild of Ward van Gemert and Adriaan van der Ploeg, who started the studio to explore "new and surprising products with a reference to everyday life and focus on bringing aspects of 'low-culture' into our designs." Ventura Lambrate will see the debut of a new household object from the Dutch pair: the "P.O.V." vase joins the "Lightweight" lamp among their product offerings.
As with another previewed piece, the vase's name captures its essence without betraying what it actually looks like. Indeed the "P.O.V." vase purportedly shares a trait with the iPad—"quite magical if you ask us"—though its interactive aspect is simply a function of circumambulating the piece.
It comes in at 40 cm (about 15.75 inches) tall, with a maximum diameter of 18 cm (~7 in.). "Made out of different kinds of plastics, the P.O.V. vase... will come in an endless variety of colors and patterns."
