Fellow & Friends (+ you can WIN a Silo Pendant!)


Last week, I visited the studio and showroom of new NZ design collective, YOURS. And now we're gunna have a closer nosey at some of their products - starting with the Fellow desk lamp and Silo pendant.

Side note: these boys know how to name a product. Fellow is in my notebook of awesome names. 



The Fellow lamp features hand-turned american ash (leggy blonde) and hand-spun aluminium. There's so much personality in its form, dontcha think? Like a little designer friend on your desk. Hence the name Fellow, actually. 

Sam (Griffin, the head designer for Fellow) tells me that they're also planning a tall/floor version. NICE. 

I love how the fittings remain exposed. That kind of honesty is sexy.

YOURS designers Sam and James (McNab) collaborated to design the Silo Pendant. I want one in my home. That's a lie, I want several.

It's industrial shape was inspired by its namesake. The cord wraps around the cage, no extra fittings needed. 

It currently comes in all white, and black or white with raw steel and a red fabric flex.

It also comes either with a fitted ceiling rose or just the cord with a plug - so you don't need an electrician and so you can have play around with how you suspend and make a feature out of the long, exposed cord. Love that. 


Holy guacamole, YOURS is going to give one of you a Silo Pendant, worth over $600.
And you'll get to choose which version you'd like.

This competition is now all over, rover - and Andrew Pollock just got himself a Silo Pendant.
Thank you all for entering.
