here’s an awesome DIY that shows you how to make a concrete lightbulb wall hook that you can make from used lightbulbs and make your home looks even more stylish with greyed-out lightbulbs that can hold a lot of pounds.

I’ve been playing around, trying to make a concrete lightbulb. Why? Because I find the contrast of blending a new material like concrete in an everyday shape like a lightbulb to be a great design element. So while messing around with these guys, I realized this would be a great excuse to drive lag bolts into my wall for hooks. By embedding a lag bolt into the concrete lightbulb, I could make a wall hook that was useful enough to handle anything I wanted to hang off it. Thus this project was born.

For one, I know Philips was working on color-changing LEDs and lightbulbs that are easy to install while providing high power.

On top of that, they introduced Ambilight TVs where the background lights would match with what you see on TV.

Lastly but not least, I did hear of CitizenM hotels in Amsterdam, supposed to be all design and damn great.

It seems that Philips is partnering up with bunch of design hotels to showcase their new products.

I think this is a great way for the company to get exposure and also great for the design hotels to get the latest technology straight from Philips.  (Yes, sometimes we are not bitter. )

Great stuff, ain’t it? (or great marketing?)

In a partnership that could take hotel guests’ experience to a whole new holistic level, Philips and luxury hotel brand Fairmont have teamed up for the Asia Pacific region’s first Ambient Experience Concept Suite at Fairmont Singapore. As part of Philips’ “Hotel of the Future” initiative, regional media on Friday were given a glimpse of what the concept could look like when finalized.

Can’t afford a real lamp shade but you want a condom-like cover for your naked bulbs?

Well, you can always get the Bulbcap for that. They come in different colors so…

The Bulbcap is a lampshade, slightly more than a lightbulb. The caps are directly pulled over the lightbulbs of up to 40 watts. Any wattage can work when using economical lightbulbs. The Bulbcaps can be fixed on hanging bulbs from the ceiling, or on standing lamps of any kind. Mix and match various colors to create a collage of lights!
