A year after their spectacular window installations merging light with motion at Harrod's, Chilean 3-D lighting design company Luxia just announced their new theAnemix Home Collection for those who want the same tech effects to play with in domestic spaces. The spacey, futuristic furniture might look straight out of a Star Trek episode, but the pieces—a book case, CD rack, night stand, a lamp—are meant for the here and now.
Each item comes customizable, meaning it has four patterns and four mirror options for a total of 16 combinations of light and color possible. Want to show off the magic while entertaining house guests? The furniture is controlled via a wireless control system activated by a remote control, so you can make martinis for friends and put on a light show at the same time without leaving the kitchen.
Each piece varies between $1,120 and $2,000. The company's currently looking for distributors of the collection, so write to them via their site to find out how to get your mitts on the furniture when it's available.

It might be time to rethink that new floor lamp you're considering. If GE's latest invention (a new form of OLEDs or organic light-emitting diodes) lives up to its claims, incandescent bulbs will start to be a thing of the past as early as 2010. Which is a forward-thinking move on GE's part considering the impending ban on traditional bulbs. In their place, GE's...
Combining the brain-teasing appeal of a Rubik's cube with a multi-touch interface, British electronic engineer Andrew Fentem's Fentix Cube might be the ultimate geek toy. The full-color screens are bright enough to see in daylight and the lights can be programmed to simulate any number of multi-dimensional puzzles, including Rubik's classic (watch the video to see it in action), games or ambient lighting themes. No...
Much like the 3-D display in our latest video, this LED art fan displays moving images on a rotating blade in 2-D. We've seen similar versions before, but this makes strides with color and programmability. With 42 LEDs mounted on the blades the LED art fan spins and flickers to create beautiful images. Holding up to 128 individual pictures in its built-in memory, the...
The ghost-like Edison Lamp from Anthropologie is at once a conversation piece and completely unobtrusive. Made in France entirely from hand blown glass, the unusual use of transparent material is reminiscent of a Hurricane lamp, with a handsome balance of sensual curves and the strong lines of the cylindrical "shade." The result is a light suitable for a desk or end table that nearly...
