Bombe’s Compelling Constellation of Fiery Light

Red is my favorite color, so I’m quite partial to Yellow Goat’s Bombe. I’m also a devotee of synchrony, so I rather admire the double globe effect of the piece’s bulb and shade. In fact, I believe the best things come in threes, and though Bombe’s ostensible two-piece assembly might seem to disqualify it from that appraisal, the glass globe actually houses an energy-efficient CFL, which gives Bombe de-facto membership in this club of handsome threesomes. These qualities certainly recommend this imaginative miniature explosion of light, but the show-stopper is Bombe’s bright red acrylic shade. Resembling a paper sculpture created by the likes of a cheery incarnation of Edward Scissorhands, the shade’s intricate undulations are owed to the high durability and uniform consistency of acrylic, which material captures the effect of this Bombe’s perpetual detonation. Says Yellow Goat, “I wonder if this is what it looks like inside an exploding firework in the split second before it bursts into the night sky? Could be.”

Photosynthesis Lamp

By Meirav Barzilay Design Studios

This is the Photosynthesis Lamp! Need I say more? The name itself explains it all! It's a great idea, just remember be careful when you water the plants... water and electric don't mix well.. Also, would the plant get burned by the light bulb by sitting so close to it? However, I still think maybe with some adjustments and careful watering system, this can definitely work!

This amazing lamp won the Best Woonproduct in the Sanoma woon awards 2010! When you look up at it, it's like looking into the night sky with thousands of shining stars. According to the designer, the beauty of this lamp is based on pure mathematics.

I have always been mesmerized by these spidar look-a-like chandeliers. The design took from these very basic drafting table lights and made it into something amazing and wonderful! All the adjustable arms let you play with the light to any position you like. I like!

There is something so simple and yet intriguing and elegant at the same time. I can't seem to keep my eyes off of it! Just think that it is as simple as a light bulb, power cable and a spring from an old chair or mattress. Well done Alessandro Marelli!

Dumbbell-lamp?

We came across this interesting little lighting concept recently on Design Spotter. It is "the system of lamps, inspired by dumbbell, realised in polypropylene or soft touch plastic." This Dumbbell lamp is designed by Samal design France.

So what do we think about these dumbbell lamps? Since it's still a lighting concept and there are not much information about how these things work, yet. However, it does seem like a good idea if we can take each dumbbell as a flash light (assuming these are battery operated) and then hook up a bunch together to really light up a space.

Seems like it would be a fantastic idea if as we hook these dumbbell lamps on the chains, they also start charging the batteries. Could this really be a great lighting product? I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Got Milk?

Got Milk LED light comes with a traditional on and off switch, but if you leave it on, flipping the glass over turns it off. Nothing like a simple and elegant direct physical action to control a simple and elegant device.

light PEG

light PEG designed by Natalia Romanova for a lighting design competition is really pretty cool!

The concept of the light PEG is to combine the functions of pegs with light. It kinda like little to-go lights! Very cute!

Each PEG has 6 LEDs and 2 rechargeable batteries (not sure of the size). The batteries needs to be charged for 30-40mins for 4-5 hours of lite time. That's pretty good.

We can see a lot of possibilities of where to use the light PEG, what about you?



Definitely a must at parties!!!
Would be very useful for ordering drinks at a bar as well.
It's a cleaver concept!

Torch White LED light Glove

This Torch white LED light glove designed by Solvenian designer Tilen Sepic sure look like something out of the the sci-fi movies. The design concept is to make a working light without shadows being reflected in the object. Just point at the location and you will see the light!

This sure is an unusual concept!

Light Wood

These Glow-in-the-Dark outdoor furniture is designed by Gruppo Avanzini who uses the stripes of various kinds of wood with resin infill between each layer. This is a design style somewhere between high-end craft and luxury contemporary furniture design.

I can see this fits perfect in a lunge bar or an outdoor patio space for those hip and trendy. It runs on batteries for now, but hopefully there will be a charging feature soon!

LED of leds

LED of LED by kei yamamoto from France

They are so simple! The design shows off the simplicity and beauty in 5mm led that we most likely took for granted.

These LED lighting fixtures are about twenty times a led bulb and there are 12 leds in the acrylic glass lens. As a bonus, it also creates interesting light patterns on the walls or ceiling.


Very interesting idea but not yet manufactured.

Piano LED lights by QisDesign

Piano LED

This LED lighting fixture, inspired by the piano, allows the user to play the light as they would a piano. A very interesting idea! The user can adjust the amount of lighting by switching the "piano keys" on and off. The more "white" keys, the brighter the light is!

The Piano LED collection comes in two forms:

Floor Light
and
Desk Light



The Piano Light costs a bit on the higher side, but hey, the ability to interact with your lighting fixture is priceless, right?

Diana Lin Design wants to give people not only physical experiences with products, but also emotional experiences. We produce innovative products that bring happiness and joy to people. Instead of creating products that just sits somewhere and just look good; we want to create products that encourage interaction. We want to inspire people to touch, feel and play with everyday objects. The soft and squeezable nature of silicone provides just what we need! When you squeeze the silicone bubbles, you can feel the pressure of the air inside and also hear the sound of the air coming out. It provides the experiences for not only sight, but also touch and auditory. The d°light bubbles let people put their creative minds to work! You can hang them on a hook, lay them down on the floor, bunch them up on your bed…etc. The possibilities are endless! Each relationship between the user and d°light is unique.


So HOW will you d°light?
The d°light bubbles could also be used as a stress release object. Instead of a little stress squeeze ball, you will have 12 silicone bubbles to squeeze and release all your daily stresses!

-provides a soft ambient lighting to any room in the house: Living room, study room or bedside table.
-the silicone bubble LED is soft, cool to touch and squeezable.
-users can create different ambience by squeezing the silicone bubbles to make a concaved shape in the bubble.
