Updated design for the standard light bulb. Flat.

Flat Bulb by Joonhuyn Kim 540x461 Updated design for the standard light bulb. Flat.

An interesting idea from Korean designer Joonhuyn Kim. As practical as it is to have a flat light bulb, say in regards to shipping perhaps, or storage, or even in the carry home… I think this may be too smart for it’s own good. What it gains in efficiency of transport, it looses in uniformity of light. Not to say I’m not disappointed I can’t get a few of these for my apartment (sadly, they aren’t in production). Because how cool is a flat light bulb? Images after the jump.
