Inspired by the urban security camera, the Spoticam is designed by Antrepo and looks like the CCTV camera. Due to its adjustable arm, you can mount it on the wall or use it as a desk lamp. Too bad that this lamp is just a concept but it would be really interesting to have a couple of this lamps in your house and every gust to think that is on video .

Recently I found on Metacafe, a video about one of the coolest street lights I have ever seen. It is said to be in Japan and it uses wind speed as well as solar power to charge itself and reduce the energy consumption. Probably it has some internal batteries that accumulate energy during the day, when is sunny outside or when is windy.

For sure this kind of street lights should be in every city. Imagine how much energy will be saved!

PS: But it seems that it doesn’t produce enough light to light the surroundings…

Check out this cool light bulbs. They look like they are melting. This is the creation of Dutch designer Pieke Bergmans as part of her ongoing Design Virus project.

The bulbs are hand made and inside there are LEDs. Interesting to decorate a library for example. Too bad that you can’t buy them on the market.

Plants are nice to have in any apartment. If you want to grow a small herb garden inside, most of the people have problems because there is not so much light…and the plants will die.

Designers Kfir Schwalb and Orit Magia of Studio Shulab came up with the idea of Lightpot concept. What is it? It’s a small pot that can be used to grow plants and herbs indoors.

You can use the lamp on your desk for daily stuff and the light will also help the plants grow better. Is a nice concept but for sure not something new. Just the design, not the idea. I often use a lamp to help my plants grow in dark days.
