Embrace the aging process, everything doesn’t have to be new, look around at what time has given us.

The Illusion of Natural Light

June 6th, 2010

It is amazing the effect light has on us.  Personally I love natural light, it is an essential part of my daily existence. 

This article in Dezeen caught my eye…..  The illusion of natural light falling onto this wall, still conjures the feeling and even essence that natural light gives.   This effect was created by Norwegian designer Daniel Rybakken, with LED panels.
