Array
Home  |  Design
Summer is coming, let us hide under this VEIL Solar Shades. The VEIL Solar Shades is a concept for Australian primary school yards for the integration of solar-energy harvesting info a form that is both pragmatic(providing shade & energy) and evocative. This project created by Australian design firm Bščro North in partnership with the Victorian Eco-Innovation Lab. This shades feature a broad, uni-directional panels surface that is rotated throughout the day by school children to best suit the positon of the sun. It also included an LED feedback system shows whether the shades are getting enough sunlight, LED glow green(good), LED glow red(bad). I love this projcet, I hope it can be installed in the main streets in the future, which can provide the energy for the street lamps or traffic lighting...

A screening room in the Montauk's house, designed by James Biber. The room was inspired by Radio City Music Hall and 2001: A Space Odyssey. This home theater, which takes up 350 square feet in a 1,500-square-foot basement, had to have soundproofing and dimmable lights, leather floors and cute beanbags. "and as in the Music Hall, the lights are positioned to glow away from the viewers - because we all hate to have lights in our eyes when watching the big screen." The project was previously featured in The New York Times.

Bright Blind

Home  |  Design
Bright Blind made of electroluminescent (EL) sheets, Makoto Hirahara's Bright Blind simulates a window where none exists. It designed by Mongoose. In all other respects, the artificial blind functions in exactly the same way as a regular blind - ie turning the plastic stick controls the brightness. Unfortunately since the original version was actually created by hand, if you want your own you better have a lot of patience and probably a lot of money.
