Corona Solar Light

Emi Fujita and Shane Kohatsu’s brand new Corona Solar Light, an outdoor lighting solution that combines a photovoltaic cell, LEDs, and sunflower-esque form to bring a lovely solar-powered glow to your outdoor spaces. The self powered Corona Lamp can be used indoors and out – attached to a wall, staked and “planted” like a flower, or just placed on a tabletop- all without glues or fasteners.

XDesign’s PV Powered Air Filter Lamp

Natalie Jeremijenko in collaboration with Amelia Amon developed this wonderful Air Filter Plant Lamp powered by a PV window awning that uses plants as a lamp diffuser with LED’s calibrated to sustain the growth of plants that cleanse indoor air. The link leads to Natalie’s video explanation!

Wind to Light

Here is an ephemeral expression of wind energy manifested as light.

Wind to Light

“an urban installation that illustrates alternative, sustainable ways of harnessing energy by visualising it as an ephemeral cloud of light. a large number of mini wind turbines generate the power to illuminate hundreds of mounted leds, hereby creating firefly-like fields of light. wind is visually interpreted as emergent electronic patterns across the installation.”

Light Wind

From Dutch Design House: Demakersvan comes Light Wind

“An outside lamp drawn from our home surroundings. The gently
sweeping Dutch windmills were actually perfect generators of their
own. With that in mind, we made this lamp. With every breeze it
stores energy, enough to enjoy every summerevening untill
forever. Contemporary vs traditional, art vs functionality.
Shaped by its function the big prop spans over one meter on each
side. It is a self supporting light source that marks the landscape. “
