solovyovdesign: insight lightbulb

 
front view

the most recent project of belarusian industrial design duo solovyovdesign
(igor and maria soloyov) 'insight lamp' is a fluorescent bulb that plays a joke
on the classic good idea light bulb joke. measuring not much bigger than a
standard bulb, the open form provides a dissipation light that is usually not
found in single point light sources creating a somewhat ambient nature
to the light produced.

it's a bit brain-heavy, isn't it?

Lol - That's actually a brilliant design! :))

I went onto their website... there's no way to buy any of their stuff? There are a few things on there, especially these bulbs, that I would gladly buy if I could.
Nathan   03.14.11
@Nathan, there's no way to buy this stuff because they don't actually make most of it. Some of the accessories and furniture might actually be real, but the rest is just CAD. I'm so tired of design "news" that's just wishful thinking and clever use of photorendering. If I didn't have a real job, I could spend all day making pictures that looked good, but it's not really going to advance the world is it?

@ RealEngineer
Get a grip man! It's just a bit of fun - creative thinking that could very well plant the seed for an idea that does 'advance the world'. Just because you are sad about your boring job doesn't mean the rest of us want to know about it.
