LitraCube Lamp

This new Litracon based lamp consists of four identical pieces of concrete. Due to special geometry, these pieces form a stable structure without fixing them together. Now you can make your own lamp by using concrete blocks and a lightbulb in the middle. Litracon is normal concrete but with thousands of parallel optical fibres embedded into it.The fibres can pass the light and color through the block .You can get this lamp for $770 plus the shipping taxes from Hungary. Ingenious no?

The architect Donald Chong quotes “Small fridges make good cities”. He may have a point there .The smaller the fridge is the less food we stock and eat. It integrates perfectly in any kind of kitchen and nobody will even knowledges that is a fridge. Unfortunately , the drawers all have open bottoms , easy to clean and good for air circulation , but every bit of the cooled air ends up on the floor once the drawer is opened.

This is the 007 House designed by architect Rob Paulus and it set in the Arizona desert. What I really like about this house is that it can capture all rainwater on the roof in a steel pipe gutter that will spill into a 1000 gallon storage tank to be re-used for courtyard planting. Rob Paulus shows that he loves the nature and relaises that water is not something we should waste. It`s actually more of a bachelor pad as the owner is a single guy in his mid 30s. It looks like it`s built like a fortress with that wall there but that`s more for privacy.
