At the Designersblock exhibition during last month's London Design Festival, Tokyo designer Chicako Ibaraki displayed the Hollow stool, Weave bookshelf and Line light (above).

Line is a floor-standing LED lamp with an acrylic diffuser, inspired by a shaft of light peaking through the opening of a small window.

Weave bookshelf is made of rubber-painted interlocking steel bars which Ibaraki says can hold up to 200 books.
Hollow is a simple fibre-reinforced plastic stool.
Here are the details from Ibaraki:
Line
Design: Chicako Ibaraki
I saw a line of light shine in, through a small window.
It was simple, clear and sharp. The room’s stillness was created by the light.
I wanted to capture the line of the light.
The light source is an LED lamp it makes the whole diffuser glow.
The high luminescence provided by the LED lamp output allows for lower power consumption and creates a more sustainable light’s life.

Two flat bars running perpendicular at right angles create a bookshelf. The irregular braiding shape changes when viewed from different angles.
This bookshelf made of rubber painted stainless steel. Rubber paint prevents slipping books. The bookshelf make it possible to put 200 books.
