Trash - brainwaves the notion that raises the bar on what ‘it means to be brilliant’, integrating that material to form traffic lamps.
The modern-day green technology is mixing things just perfectly - with concept like this one from Greenlight Concepts, attempting to do away with the old traffic lights incarnating them with more contemporary lamps - installed by LED technology.
The recycled traffic lamps, is a prototype designed by a San Francisco based designer Daniel Krivens and colleague Nicholas Lee. The conventional lighting finds a replacement with the highly efficient LED technology killing the beast - the model taps into the waste stream (heaves of colored glass debris finding landfills across the U.S.) to give ‘Intimidating Red’, ‘Yielding Yellow’ and ‘Go Green’ an entirely novel definition.
The glass is reused for same indented purpose, though with defining and startling attributes, which speak loads of the beautifully textured glass. Molded into GLC’s pendant and bucket lamp designs, the lamps come in the expected red, yellow and green, but the unique trait lures the passer to look-on.
The complexity of the design may get you to a halt but the benefits derived will get you going - cleaner and greener, with efficient energy playing the key - at just $90-299.
