Commentes on Three 2009 Red Dot Rewards Equipped with LED

See.... LED is getting more and more attention from designers. Here iLEDist picked Three design concepts from 2009 Red Dot rewards which covers Green, Illumination and energy. Let's take a look how impressive they are:

Draw the Lights by Seo Dong-Hun
With its LED ceiling web and light brush, Draw the Lights enables any space to be illuminated in any format, as though one were painting on a canvas.
iLEDist's Comments:
Great Idea! The interaction between the human being and their living environment would be generated naturally by the physical needs of pursuing lighting and emotional needs of creating a unique, private space. But we want to see more details and want to be more specific: First of all, I would not take ceiling as the best choice for LED painting. Big NO! Try to look up for 50 seconds, my neck will be in panic. Secondly, what is the size of cells for LED wet? will there be any compromise between the ideal lighting effect and realistic circuit structure?

A Traffic Light by Feng Chung-Tsung, Wang Bo-Jin, Lin Yao-Chieh
With its use of LEDs and solar power, A Traffic Light reduces the manufacturing cost and energy consumption of infrastructure.
iLEDist's Comments:
Nice thought but kind of out of date. I believe some of the States in US has already installed LED Traffic light. Please check out here. Hard for me to accept a concept would deserve a Red Dot just because it reduced three LED lights down to one. Plus, the looks of the design is so poorly designed, it will totally bother me if a public installation looks like this standing in the middle of the road. I am sorry, guys, you failed iLEDist.

FLEXI by Han Jaeseok, Hong Songguk, Joo Sae Na, Kim Gyeo Re
Most people who go camping take a flashlight as well as a separate light source for ambient lighting. The flexible FLEXI light performs as both.
iLEDist's Comments:
This is something iLEDist really likes. Simple, multitasker. Change the lighting performance with the change of the silicone pad! Smart! But, where is the on/off switch?
