The Glow Brick is a solid brick of acrylic resin with a real lightbulb trapped inside of it. The bulb is filled with pigments that charges by daylight and then emits a nice, warm glow (created by photoluminescence) at night.
“The mysterious optical effect is caused by light diffracting in the tiny space between the glass of the light bulb and the resin - this space forms when the resin shrinks by a tiny amount during the production process.”
The Glow Bricks are available in blue and green and measures 3.3" x 3.3" x 5".

This candle holder is named “Kerzenhaltding”, and when I translated that using Babelfish I got “Candle stop thing”. It’s not one of those fake, electric candles, it’s just a quite clever candle holder for unused wall sockets. Design by the German design trio Ding 3000.

This stunning lamp is called Troja Arc, a product by the German design duo hanzandfranz. Just slide the lit part and get your very own arc of light.
