Mixko Alexander Vases by Ami Kealoha
Fresh from the studio of those cut-up British designers Mixko, these ceramic vases take on the unexpected form of human knees and elbows. We like how the "Michaelangelo meets Dexter" vessel's organic contours are subtle enough to pass for an abstract objet.
Both versions are £100 and available now from DA in Moscow and from Mixko's online store later this month.

Ancient Japan in Milan
If design is in the details, at this year's Milan furniture fair the key shift is away from flawless surfaces and towards Japan's ancient aesthetic of wabi sabi, which rests on the concept that beauty is imperfect, impermanent and incomplete.
