Stuart Haygarth

People often ask me, especially journos, who my favourite creator is from the Cool Green Stuff book. I could sit on the fence and say, 'there are so many wonderful designers I really can't choose'...but I will say I was tickled pink when told that Stuart Haygarth's 'Millennium Chandelier' would be on the cover of the UK version of the book (called Cool Hunting Green in non-US markets).

This is another creation from Stuart, called 'Spectacle', created in 2006. Stuart's website says; 'Spectacle is created from over 1000 pairs of prescription spectacles which are linked together to resemble a traditional tiered chandelier. By using prescriptive spectacles which were once an essential tool for seeing an interesting analogy is drawn between their old and new purposes. A mirror ball light effect is produced as the light is refracted through the several layers of lenses.'
