most of us hate to be pigeonhole­d, but that’s probably because we don’t have ‘the mail box’, designed by Jinsik kim. slim, discreet and elegant, this brushed stainless steel box hugs the wall, its curved top and plain back concealing a rack of storage slots on each side. it marries perfectly with Jaime hayon’s ‘lightoligh­t’ lamp, one of a series of wall and floor lamps that feature an upward-facing cup shaded by a rotating dome, giving a soft, indirect light, as well as giuseppe bavuso’s ‘moon’ door, which comes in numerous finishes with matching handles. as always, everything hinges on good design.
