After graduating from the UK’s Royal College of Art, industrial designer Nick Crosbie formed Inflate, a UK-based company that produced inflatable household objects like fruit bowls, lamps and chairs.

Crosbie subsequently realized inflatable objects had immense potential at trade shows and exhibits–vendors could inflate and deflate large exhibit structures, making them easy to transport, not to mention visually distinct.

Inflate now produces designs ranging from the closet-sized Office in a Bucket to the gi-normous Trident structure (both pictured above). Check out the full line-up at their site.
