LampLamp Light Bulb- screw that!

How many blonds does it take to screw in a light bulb?  Whatever the answer, you can double that number when you throw the LampLamp into the equation.

This is Essential anywhere you have a fixture with an exposed bulb.  Normally, an exposed bulb looks tacky, but in this case your guests will be questioning their sanity, not your decorating sense.

Flashlite Friends, flashlight holders, flashlight people

How freakin fun are these things! Not only do Flashlight friends from Nite Ize personify flashlights in an uber fun way, they’re also functional. You can bend the appendages in any direction to create unique poses while positioning the angle of light exactly where you need it. 
You don’t need glasses or eyeball surgery to see at night, you just need a little help from your friends; your Flashlite Friends.  If I was 10 years younger with an incandescent light bulb head I would take these Flashlite Friends to dinner and a movie; maybe even let them spend the night! So make some new friends with a couple guys that have a very bright future.

Exploding Light Bulb, light fixture – what a bright idea!

[More Info]

northern_scheisse.jpg
Scheisse is a product from Norway’s Northern Lighting company by desinger Hans Bleken Rud.  The large pendant lamp pays its respect to one of the most important inventions of all time. The Scheisse (exploding light bulb), is as much an experiment with light and shadow as it is a creative functional piece of furniture.  If only all our common goods could invoke such an appreciation for the creative, our lives would be that much brighter.

Jellephish Mood Lamp- it listens to your music

[Get It $175]

jellephish mood lamp, jellyfish mood lamp,

As you can see by the clear ridged backbone and spinal discs of this mood lamp, the Jellephish has no relation to the invertebrate class of marine animals known as the Jellyfish. Hence the obvious spelling difference and the fact that one is a sea creature and the other is a lamp.
Made my Jellephish Design and distributed by Smart Candle, the Jellephish Mood Lamp uses processor controlled digital LED technology to illuminate the clear acrylic base and dome shaped head with an almost endless array of colors dependent on your mood. 
Set the lamp to casually scroll various colors, choose to keep a single static color, or my personal favorite, set the Jellephish’s sound activated feature.  The lamp will actually change with your music.  I happen to enjoy jamming out on the guitar while the Jellephish instantaneously changes with each pluck of the strings, it’s like having my own light show…very, very cool.

Flat Light Bulb- it’s as natural as a square ball

imageI’m not sure this technically classifies as a bulb, but I don’t know what else to call it. 

Your first question might be “why?”, but I’ll then puerilely fire back, “why not“.  The real question is why haven’t we seen this design before?  The fact is, the flat bulb doesn’t take up as much space as a regular light bulb, it doesn’t roll around and break as easily as a regular light bulb, it’s easier to store and ship, and it provides the same amount of light as a regular light bulb…so again, why not? 

Displayed by Korean designer Joonhuyn Kim, at the 2008 100% Design Tokyo, the “Flat Bulb” doesn’t yet have a manufacturer, so you can’t run out and pick one up yet, but you can try to make your own by slowly applying pressure to both sides of a normal light bulb.
