SURFACE LIGHTING DESIGN

Integrating lighting into a surface had become common in the design of interior and exterior products.

I remember recently viewing a TV program that was showcasing exterior kitchens.  There was a design of a countertops that included LED lights.  The lighting of the surface was not uniform, but rather it appeared as a constellation pattern.

David Bruno &  Barry Earl have created "Lights On", an interior glass door with an intergrated light feature.  They have used edging light with extremely low profile LEDs.  Using these lights allows the designs to illuminate the surface, while hiding the luminaires.  The designers have used them in their "Lights On" project.  This product is interior lit door can be used day and night, while being activated by remote control.

This product makes use of repurposing an existing somewhat "essential" interior product.  In turn, possibly providing for less future waste.
