"Automatically responding to light conditions to make the transformation, these solar powered lights are excellent for a hotel pool area or outdoor restaurant.
Creator, Lianne Genugten describes the design on her website:

The flexible solar cells in the cover of the parasol collect energy from the sun. As the sun goes down the shade transforms into a lampshade and brings light during the night. By means of sensors, the SunShade opens and closes automatically.

Like a mechanical flower, it reacts to day and night. " added on 2009-02-04

"When switched on the Magic Apartment Light resembles an apartment block displaying the various goings on of the inhabitants, some more innocent than others. "At night, when you turn on the light, shitting, fucking, killing and stealing are all revealed."

"Designers Wan-jin Joo, and Hyun-Joung Yoo present the Arbre

Since the beginning of the 21st century, environmental friendly design in material and shape has been getting increasingly important. So I made lightning that gives us a feeling just like nature is getting into the house literally by using tree-shape. For light, LEDs are used, while recycled plastic is used for the branch part. Arbre utilizes a module method of lighting. To use this light, the user must put the branch shaped pieces into one another. As the human inspires life into the tree, the tree releases the light through its branches."

These fig shaped inflatable lanterns are perhaps a bit childish but I feel they add a poetic feel to any outdoor space now that its freezing outdoors !"

"Description: Crosslight is an contemporary double-cruciform light soon to be illuminating U.K interiors. Multi-functionality is the key here, the sculptural lamp can either be used individually as a stand-alone table or floor light, or as part of a chandelier ensemble with special rings connecting multiple lights together. The orange version produces a gentle warming orange glow from the interior, while white orbs are reflected on the surrounding surfaces. The white cross-light gives a diffuse cascade of light." added on 2008-10-31

"New York Designer Billy May has an affordable yet innovative lighting scheme to sell you. Brought to our attention via our friends at Freshome, and intriguingly dubbed "Torn Lighting," the product presents a conceptual re-definition of sorts, since the fixtures "muddle the barrier between the room and its contents," with the resulting illusion that the light "comes from the room itself." The idea is deceptively simple: introduce elements that contain LEDs yet camouflage with wallboard (they can be painted or textured to match), thus creating the effect of a "torn" portion of wall that emits light from an unseen source.

May's collection includes fixtures with three different profiles: "Hangnail" adheres to outside corners, creating the illusion that the wall is peeling back on itself and resembling a sort of primitive sconce; "Dog Ear" attaches to straight runs and looks like it sounds—a turned-back page of paper; and "Crevice" fits to inside corners, establishing an unsettling rippling effect, the portion of wall in question thus seeming to harbor some pulsating life-form of innate phosphorescence.

Torn Lighting is purposefully random: no matter where you install the fixture, it creates the appearance of a haphazard illumination, but that’s precisely the point, as May says, "muddling" the traditional notion that light must come from a visible fixture or lamp. The concept establishes a sort of systemic mood lighting, in which the randomness of illumined objects or spaces interacts with the suggestiveness of the "hidden" source. " added on 2008-10-27

"Branch is a true self-build system with which unique configurations can be created according to a user's own needs. The starting point is always the organic and sloping base structure consisting of lacquered plastic polycarbonate, and available in khaki and mat black structure.
By means of one universal connector, different branches can be attached to one another. The organic shape of the unit ensures that Branch becomes one with its surroundings, nature, and in addition to its functional significance, also gives a decorative spirit to the outdoor surroundings. Having the courage to combine, has created an individual, unique tree structure with lateral branches." added on 2008-10-03

"Texture was an important element of many of the lighting designs featured in the Lighten Up exhibit. Re-silicone's Lagoon, a thick, chunky snake of ambient lighting was a good example of this. Vamped used colourful, glossy plastic off-cuts for Hula and the Higher Market Studio invested in cast-off jumper sleeves. Hasta la Pasta by Charlie Davidson Studio was the starchiest lighting on site, and Swarth by Re:think Things was a mass of aluminium shavings. Beryl and Friends by Wemake was a series of discarded lamps shrink-wrapped into new life" added on 2008-10-01
