The latest collaborations from Finnish designers Jari Nyman and Olli Mustikainen both concern firewood. One simulates the light from a fireplace, and the other provides a place to store firewood. 

Their Log lamp was inspired by the indirect light of a smoldering piece of firewood. Unlike an actual burning log, you can turn the lamp on or off by pressing the top of the lamp. The pair's Mägi bench is a minimal variation on the Scandinavian bench complete with different sized storage compartments that also serve as supports.
