The exhibit includes the Shoki Collection (back left), the ASA-NO-HA Lamp (back wall), and an array of Nakashima originals.

To lure visitors into an exhibition at San Francisco's Museum of Craft and Design, Wilson strung up solar-powered phosphorus-coated wires, creating a glowing path to the museum's front door.

The exhibition graphics employ a customized headline typeface developed by Project Projects. The painted floor graphic shows the shape of Roosevelt Island (in orange) and the extent of the pneumatic tube system (in white).

A demonstration pneumatic tube system ran throughout the exhibition, so visitors could better understand the technology.

The firm's work also includes exhibition and logo design. They handled both for the exhibition 'Fast Trash,' which spotlights the pneumatic trash disposal system used on Roosevelt Island since 1975.

Riffing on "the graciously swinging blue bellflower of the mountains of Norway," Andreas Bergsaker's Petiole lamp boasts a shade that can be rotated to direct light wherever one desires. Made of birch, it has an aluminum base.

One of the more impressive outdoor exhibits was this upside-down helicopter.

Kristian Knobloch, a designer based in Munich and London, created the modular Babel shelf.

Amsterdam-based designer Ingrid Hulskamp's Mirror Unknown infuses Dutch whimsy with a typical household object. In a somewhat OCD-like manner, Mulskamp was inpsired by "the guilty pleasure of tearing paper off." Over 50 sheets of painted paper are glued to the mirror and can be torn off layer by layer, creating an abstract motif.

Taiwan studio KiMU Lab marries traditional paper fans with a powder-coated metal frame for its New Old Divider.

Barcelona-based designer Alex Ortega exhibited these crimped metal display shelves. They might not be able to handle your weightiest tomes, but we were smitten with their simplicity and vibrant colors.

Frida Erson and Martin Eckerberg, co-founders of the Stockholm firm Formellt, designed an easy chair with upholstery that envelops the frame like a cocoon.

While Carrara marble has been on-trend for years now, black stones are coming to the fore. Büro Famos, a studio located in Berlin, uses black cora marble and an interlocking ash-veneer base for its Mil coffee table.

Out for Space, a multidisciplinaty design collective, sought to reimagine rattan as a furniture-building material and produced this lounge chair using karuun, a stronger, engineered version.
