Why buy, arrange, and construct an array of 60+ fluorescent light bulbs when you can strap together three of them and let good ‘ole reflections do the rest? Resting on the floor, the pyramidal shape contains three fluorescent bulbs that, aided by mirrors, project light onto your favorite piece of designer furniture. As an aside, if you happen to close off the shape with a fourth mirror you apparently create free perpetual energy. As a ...Contribute comment -

Pour Me a Glass of Light (12)
on(de)light is a project that reinterprets the concept of light as we know it. What does it mean when you can pour illuminated liquid from archetypical components like a lightbulb? When something so intangible becomes tactile and easily transferrable. The project challenges fundamental design paradigms about how we use lighting, how it’s displayed, and how it’s controlled. Imagine what our world would look like. Designer: Cristina Ferraz Rigo Texts from the designer: My first lamp ...Shared by Amihai (24) CrazyVet (44) Frawst (8) Holger E (7) J.
