For the inaugural Unidentified Lighting Object (U.L.O) 2009, which is organized by whenlightswork collective and kindly sponsored by IKEA Singapore, we would be seeing a total of 25 invited designers, from celebrated creatives to emerging designers, all across different design disciplines, work their magic on a conventional IKEA item they would each choose. As part of the runway challenge (pardon the pun), the theme, “Masak Masak”, had been proposed. All designers are invited to translate an intimate part of their childhood memories into a tangible story through their designs.
With the interesting mix of emerging and renowned designers, coupled with the support from IKEA Singapore, one would certainly be anticipating a lot of “Unidentified Lighting Object”s from this experiment.
An exhibition cum sale of all the designs would be held at the Tampines IKEA store, from 24th of October to 31st October. Admission is free.
