Designboom Shop Curates Vertical Surface and Object Collection
A new collection of kinetic mobiles, bespoke murals, and functional wall accessories.
1Curating Vertical Interior Spaces
The latest designboom shop collection focuses on vertical boundaries, moving beyond traditional wall art. This curated drop features creative objects, bespoke surfaces, and kinetic sculptures designed to bring life to blank walls. By prioritizing movement, form, and texture, the selection transforms standard architectural planes into expressive, characterful canvases for modern residential environments.
2Biophilic Design with Mybird
South Korean studio ilsangisang introduces Mybird, an emotional companion object starting at 10 dollars. Inspired by birds symbolizing luck and hope, these figures feature integrated neodymium magnets. They perch securely on metal surfaces, architectural hardware, or appliances, serving as functional holders for notes, plant clippings, or delicate chimes in a curious stance.
3Minimalist Organization with ChiHong
The V envelope and key holder by ChiHong offers a refined solution for managing daily essentials. Priced at 55 dollars, this unit is crafted from folded steel with a crisp, minimal profile. It mounts cleanly against walls to cradle mail and organize keys, effectively reducing visual clutter while maintaining an understated, elegant aesthetic.
4Bespoke Textiles by Martina Banozic
Martina Banozic Textiles provides custom wall murals starting at 89 dollars per square meter. Produced in the EU on premium linen or silk, the Ombre collection creates subtle chromatic transitions. These textured surfaces convert vast walls into fluid, artistic tapestries, making them highly suitable for both high-end residential and professional hospitality interior environments.
5Animated Timekeeping by whenwatch
The Kung fu time clock by whenwatch turns standard timekeeping into an animated spectacle for 95 dollars. The figure utilizes its limbs as clock hands, translating martial arts movements into dynamic poses. With every passing second, the figure shifts its configuration, creating a constantly changing display that merges traditional aesthetics with functional wall-mounted hardware.
6Kinetic Art with DIY Kits
The DIY oh-mobile kit by ilsangisang brings surrealistic kinetic sculpture into interior spaces for 20 dollars. Each kit includes paper motifs, stainless steel wire, and thread to create dreamlike motion. These mobiles balance gently on ambient air currents, adding a layer of subtle, wall-adjacent movement that complements the static nature of interior design.
7Geological Textures for Interiors
Expanding the mural collection, the Stone design by Martina Banozic evokes raw geological textures for 89 dollars per square meter. Engineered as a non-repeating, large-format composition, it introduces mineral depth to bare rooms. This approach provides the tactile presence of natural stone surfaces indoors without the significant weight or installation complexity of masonry.
8Platform for Independent Designers
Designboom shop continues to serve as a global platform for designers and studios to launch limited-run products. By inviting submissions for upcoming curated drops, the magazine connects independent creators with a massive audience. This initiative highlights the importance of bridging the gap between niche artistic production and accessible retail for global design enthusiasts.
