Denver-based lighting artist Chris Armijo created this light fixture from 256 wiffle balls. Buoy is just one of his lighting designs that uses multiples of common, mass-produced objects to form patterns and unique forms. He's also used plastic hangers, twist ties and paper clips for original lighting designs. Vote after the jump...
The Buoy is featured in an installation at Denver's Hinterland Gallery through June 28th. Via: designklub

i like the use of wiffle balls, thats cool in theory. But I dont like the look of it.
Maybe in a kid's room.
When you see something that's really good-looking and then suddenly you realize that it's made out of some generic everyday item, that's cool. Here, however, it works backwards: you recognize immediately that this is made of of whiffle balls, and beyond that, well, there isn't anything beyond that.
I dunno. I think it looks cool.
And I generally think most of these "Hot or Not" things are Not.
eh, looks like something one would do at girl/boy scout camp. thumbs down
This would be fantastic without the black element (beads?) and string tails. As it is it looks like something in the gym sports equipment room. A little more minimal and it would work, but I like it and voted yes. It's magically white, and they all look like little asteroids.
