People say you carry the light with you and now you can — literally. Just pocket one of these credit-card-sized light bulbs, which are powered by a small cell. Flip up the light bulb shaped cut-out to switch on the soft glow. Fits easily in your wallet or purse, so you’ll always have one handy. Personally, I’m going to use mine the next time I’m in a meeting a someone has a “bright” idea. Designed by Hyun Jin Yoon and Eun Hak Lee, you can see more at Yanko Design.

WOOD LED CLOCK

You have gorgeous wood floors, heirloom wood furniture – you even have those wooden salad bowls from the 70s – so why not a wood clock? A stroke of designing brilliance, this clock is made of LED lights layered under a wood veneer. When the clock’s off, it looks like a minimal decorative object – when the clock’s on, the large numbers glow through the wood. AC adapter included.
