French architect Paul Coudamy has created a giant modern chandelier for a private home, in Paris.

"Nuctale", the contraction of Nuage Fractal, is a tiny 35 m2 studio flat lit by a monumental 5m long light. The structure comprises 15 light sources and 76 frosted acrylic triangles and covers the major part of the flat's ceiling. The furniture and storage are all made from digitally cut plywood, so as to optimise the small residential space.

Graphic tabletop by Non Sans Raison

The new Axo collection by French design studio Non Sans Raison was inspired by the work of constructivist artists of the Russian avant-garde. It uses axonometry as a design principle: a geometric projection technique in which vanishing lines remain parallel.
