Invisible Streetlights




What if instead of standard streetlights parks and other public places were brightened by solar-powered 'leaf' streetlights? That's the idea behind Jongoh Lee's elegant invisible streetlight. The lamps are designed to wind around existing branches and store the sun's energy throughout the day. “The most innovative element of Invisible Streetlight is that it does not require a support because the flexible body in the shape of tree branch is directly installed to the trees lining a street.”
The invisible streetlight was recently awarded with an IDEA (International Design Excellence Awards) award.
