young product designer from seoul sang il has created ‘I am cutie’, a minimalistic lamp, that — as il suggests — is going to be your cute business partner. the piece looks like a sketchy flamingo made of metal and plastic.
the flamingo can serve as a light fixture, as well as a table, or a mini cabinet — if you take off the shade, it reveals a tray that may be covered with a lid. through his work, the designer tries to answer the question: ‘can I make money if I make cute things?’.
