Lightway Blinds Light Your Windowspace, Is Trippy

February 13, 2008

Designed by Damian Savio, Lightway is a blind-like system meant to light your window space. It is based off the Breezway window louver system, but has some essential differences:

The major difference being the Lightway uses organic OLED’s and advanced transparent Photovoltaic Nanoscale technology to allow sunlight to enter the household during the day and to fill the house with light during the night.

The OLEDs can display colors and patterns that do more than just light up the blinds. This thing is pretty cool until you “acidently” lick something LSD-laced. Then it becomes a whole new world. Not like the kind in Aladdin, though, because that would be cool. It’s more like a world you think you can enter but end up jumping through and falling ten stories to your end. More pics, just continue reading.

    […] Louvered shutters may not be everyone’s idea of a great time, but Damian Savio’s spangly, light-up version sure is mine. The 23-year-old industrial design student designed them for his final-year show at the University of Western Sydney. Using OLEDs and advance transparent Photovoltaic Nanoscale technology, the Lightway shutters allow the sunlight in during the day, whilst storing energy in solar cells to power the crazy lights at nighttime. Suddenly I feel like I want to party. galleryPost(’lightway’, 3, ‘Lightway’); [Swongled] […]
