Loose wires are incredibly ugly and dangerous. Not only do they stand the chance of getting entangled in something (like your foot, cat, Roomba, etc.) but they’re also just plain unsightly. An unkempt wire can absolutely ruin a space’s aesthetic, and it takes a pretty keen and determined eye to spot the problem and set out to fix it.
Determined to never have random loose wires corrupt the visual balance of his spaces, Andrew Ferrier designed the Cable Cradle, a simple, innovative twist on the plug-point. Ferrier’s redesigned plug-point comes with an extended lip that gives you a channel to wrap your spare wires around. Almost like a thread and a spool, the wire can be looped as many times as needed to make your space look neat, and to prevent you from accidentally tripping over that pesky little wire that’s aimlessly strewn across the floor. Ferrier even built a nice ridge on the top of the Cable Cradle to allow you to rest your phone on it, so you can charge your phone and dock it too! GENIUS!

Inspiration for a design can come from anywhere and it’s what both launches and drives the project, but what I find most interesting is the narrative that it creates! Sometimes inspiration comes from the most unlikely of sources, which is the case for this design where it was found during the repairs that were needed after the 2009 L’Aquila earthquake, more specifically, the mechanism that stabilized the damaged buildings.
Using this mechanism, the appropriately named Xtension Light can extend from 1500mm to 3000mm, and thanks to its spherical latch points, it is able to be securely fastened in any household room and onto any surface. Its extensive dimensions and bold design enables this light to really become a part of the room’s architecture as opposed to an item of furniture!
Extension also has a party trick! As the LEDs are programmable, it can become a signal light for occupied washrooms or indicate directions of intended travel, making it ideal for use in both a commercial and domestic environment!
The Extension is a winner of the A’ Design Award for the year 2018.
