Wallpaper* Design Awards 2010: The Interior Design Winners, Part 1

5.  Wallpaper* Design Award 2010 For Best Centerpiece: Aurora Candles, by Monica Förster for Liljeholmens

These 75mm candles definitely stole the “BLOND BUDDHAS” show at the Komyoji temple in Kamiyacho last October, but you can imagine how they would look on your own dining table.  The Aurora Candles are said to fit most standard candle holders.

6.  Wallpaper* Design Award 2010 For Best Table Lamp: ToFU, by Tokujin Yoshioka for Yamagiwa

In the words of its designer, "ToFU's significance is manifested through light, not the lamp itself." Still, the lamp is pretty stunning, especially on a reflective surface.  The ToFU is available in a floor lamp as well as a table lamp. 

 7. Wallpaper* Design Award 2010 For Best Coffee Table: Hexad, by Tomoko Azumi for Benchmark and Rocket Gallery

And a stackable coffee table, at that, but the Hexads look grand when adjoined!  Find them at the Rocket Gallery.

8.  Wallpaper* Design Award 2010 For Best Armchair: Archibald, by Jean-Marie Massaud for Poltrona Frau

This cushy leather Archibald Armchair is so inviting.  Don't worry about the spinal support either; it's all there.
