At Stockholm Creative Edition, Swedish designer Simon Skinner unveiled a series of sculptural lights made from second-hand glass sourced from charity shops and flea markets.
Readers praised the designs, with one calling them "an amazing concept that should be celebrated", while another, less impressed, said, "If the glass were being used as some kind of solar reflector to heat homes for free, now that would be amazing".
Other stories in this week's newsletter included Chris Williamson's plans for a high-speed rail linking Britain and Ireland, the aerodynamic Antarctic Discovery Building by Hugh Broughton Architects with NORR and a two-in-one rug and sofa by Sabine Marcelis.
