Housewares designers of the future, as chosen by Fred Flare
By Valerie Rains, Shine staff, on Tue Jul 1, 2008 1:13pm PDTIt is certainly possible that if you are over the age of 16, you don't regularly peruse the Fred Flare site; I do. One thing I love about FF is the "Next Big Thing" contest they run every year, giving a handful of promising young designers a chance to sell their stuff on the site and hopefully get lots of good exposure. While the bulk of the stock is brightly colored accessories (basically adult toys—although not "adult" toys) like Snoopy toothbrush sets and Rubik's cube alarm clocks, there are a few less-silly housewares in the mix that could find a good home in a not-too-stiff setting.
Decoylab's "Trompe L'Oeil" cuckoo clock is just $25 and totally adorable.
