Considering that Gizmodo took Kawamura Ganjavian's "Ostrich" pillow concept and ran with it, I had some reservations about posting Rafael Morgan's "Symbiosis" lamp.
But we're all adults here, and I think it's worth sharing Morgan's interesting, if suggestive, symbiotic design as a riff on recycled wine bottle candle holders.
The Symbiosis lamp has an internal spring action mechanism that allows it to functionally adapt to most kinds of cylindrical recipients and objects. Covered by an elastic fabric cap, it also adapts aesthetically to those objects, creating a relationship between them.Two objects working as one. One cannot exist without the other. A design relationship with endless possibilities.
The semi-NSFW spin, for shits and giggles: just because it has prophylactic qualities, doesn't make it suitable for every kind of "cylindrical recipient."

LOL ! Nice post, Ray! Thanks for the support! Cheers, Rafael Morgan.
Certainly cool and versatile, but I just can't get the condom image out of my head.
Well, I would rather think that it looks more like a pantyhose... :)
