‘Home Disco’ is an electro LED light table in disguise

Fusing his background in engineering with thoughtful, innovative design, his work with LEDs and lasers see him as the first port of call for designers and artists looking for concepts with a digital twist. When Wallpaper approached him to design an object with the brief ‘Home Disco’, he responded with typical flair, producing this magical, awe-inspiring electro coffee-table. Sleek, retro coffee-table by day, the unit, which accommodates speakers, an iPod dock and…. wait for it…. a ‘Haze Machine’, fires into life when the lights go down, beaming out Waldemeyer’s trademark lasers to form a wonderfully futuristic dancing cage…… if this is the future, we’re sure glad we’re living it!

LED-Powered Climate Dress Monitors Pollution

This incredibly designed dress will react to the air quality and pollution levels by pulsating hundreds of LED lights. This dress was created by Diffus. Hundreds of LEDs are woven into this dress, linked to a microprocessor and a carbon dioxide detection unit. It’s kind of amazing that it includes all of those LED lights. If the level of pollution increases around it, the lights start pulsating faster and faster, making a nifty air quality sensor.

While this concept may not be practical enough for mass production, we feel that environmentally conscious fashion like this is certainly progress in the right direction for the creative world. With LEDs and OLEDs becoming smaller and smaller, as well as more and more efficient, I wonder if we’ll see more of these lights integrated into clothing. Something like this certainly would impact our environmental awareness.
