8-Bit hanger: “

This 8-Bit hanger made me chuckle. Perfect for an interactive studio, no? I am tempted to get one right next to my desk, so I can hang my headphones when not in use!

Ceiling Painted By Light [Concepts]: “
At the moment, our choice of lighting is fairly committal. We drill holes in our ceilings for permanent placements of bulbs. But LEDs open all sorts of other possibilities.
It’s not hard to imagine a ceiling covered in RGB LEDs, like Seo Dong-Hun’s Draw the Lights concept. Equipped with a few sensors, a laser (or IR) pen could ‘paint’ an array of light, allowing you to customize your entire living space in a manner not unlike a Philips LivingColors lamp…only a lot more immersive.

And even without that silliness, it’s still a pretty neat thought that you could completely change the look of a room without having to reach for the paint buckets. [Yanko Design]
