Liam de la Bedoyere's Bored Eye Design Turns Everyday Objects Into Playful Experiments
Liam de la Bedoyere, a British designer from Bored Eye Design in Essex, specializes in innovative furniture. His newest creation, Popsticks, consists of inflatable chopsticks that can be rolled up for convenience. This project stems from Productober's Inflatable theme, giving a playful twist to a traditional utensil. The Lumen Chair (2025) functions as both a lamp and a chair, featuring a hollow structure that hides wiring and rechargeable batteries for easy transport. The Grid reimagines an umbrella stand with yellow tubes, resembling a piece of art. Lightamals started with a flamingo lamp, evolving into Duke, a duck-themed desk lamp showcased at San Francisco Design Week. The Dog Hut Bed combines a dog kennel with an oak bed for effortless access. De la Bedoyere redefines ordinary items into remarkable designs.
