Reinventing the wheel. Or the rocking chair.

Stumbled onto the 100% Design show in London, and a few pieces really jumped out as smart, inventive and entertaining. The picture is of a rocker called Ku-Dir-Ka by Lithuanian designer Paulius Vitkauskas. The floor model was bright green, but it's also available in black and red according to its manufacturer, Contraforma. Designer Anthony Dickens takes a whole new look at time with clocks that scroll in a linear fashion while others rotate like a carousel. Andrew Lang has created something that looks like a flower pot screwed to the wall. Instead, you lock your bike to it. No need for big bike racks. A design group called Asobi from Slovenia crushes all sense of scale with their XXL suggestion for public seating, the Isle Lounge. Dead Good brings cool Britannia to a mirror. The London office of ad agency Wieden & Kennedy even got in on the act, sponsoring a design contest for a new product that reprepresents them . It's very democratic. Vote here.
