“Nevroz” designed by French artist Yann Lestrat for Belgian manufacturer Tamawa looks fun. They make all their products from the Bakelite spheres inspired by the vocabulary of colored balls used in the Eames Hang-It-All coat rack. There is lots of meditative and calming value in this piece as one tries to hold the sphere perfectly still, or balancing it just so on a tabletop. It’s a round (Bakelite) bead embedded with a bubble chamber and a circular mark. I think people who are stressed out might want to try this to increase their focus. Apparently it symbolizes “psychic, individual and collective balance.”
