Post # 048 Wow that's a clever idea

Light where it’s needed, when it’s needed

When the night falls… As day fades to night, Light Blossom softly
closes and transforms itself from a poetic power-generating landmark
to a reassuring source of light. Its LEDs shine, lighting up with
precision around its foot for safety and for the prevention of
unnecessary ‘light pollution’. The lamp format also allows passers-by
to see the stars again.



When people pass by…

When no one is around, Light Blossom glows at the minimum level
required for safety in its ‘stand-by’ mode. When people pass by, Light
Blossom senses this movement and comes to life, increasing its
intensity and bathing passers-by in comforting light.
