NYC-based designer Harry Allen and Esque Studio have collaborated on a new line of blown glass and steel frame lighting and vases. Think the Blob meets 3-D wireframes, but styled into high-end housewares, and without the slimy mess. The organically designed vessels rest tensely within steel gridded frames, appearing to ooze despite being completely rigid.

Alessandro Mendini and Cleto Munari made something very similar, but (in my opinion) more beautiful some years ago with a project called micromacro. www.cletomunari.com
well, they look exactly like a vase done by Gijs Bakker in the 70's.
