When it comes to offbeat news, this has to be one of the more peculiar stories we have seen in a while but it's also pretty awesome! This abandoned oil tank in Helsinki is decorated with 1,250 LED lights as part of a public art project.

Let me tell you. It would totally trip me out to walk into someone’s house and see illuminated hats hanging from their ceilings. Hats are meant to be on bodies. Or used as weapons. But�definitely�not as home lighting. Somewhere, a dapper chap is walking around hatless. Link

Is your neighbor one of those dickish pricks who just can’t be outdone during the holiday season. They make the best cookies, they create the coolest nativity scene, they put on the best light show, they just refuse to come in second. This year, beat them at their own game (or at least come in a close second) and save ...

Alex Beim must be a heavy drinker, ’cause I have no idea how he got so many empty bottles for his project. The LED Bottle Wall is a sight that seems appropriate for a Disney World attraction. Slews of LED lights penetrate the reflective surface of the bottles, creating an luminary effect that’s unmatched by Pink Floyd. Link

Here’s a stunning work of art to get your morning going. Several artists cast themselves in a beeswax/paraffin emulsion and placed a wick in the middle. The end result? Life-sized human candles that become insanely creepy as they slowly melt. The creators let them burn throughout the entire exhibition, the end result looking more like hot oatmeal than a human. ...

So have you got $45 sitting around? Good. You’re going to need it before Apple gets its legal team all over these light-up retro Apple t-shirts. They feature the rainbow Apple logo of days past. The best part is that it responds to sound and will flash in sync with a beat should you provide it with one. Sure, $45 ...

Alright, alright, you got me. The base is made out of concrete but these lamps are still cool as hell. Perfect for ambient lighting in your game room or for a nightclub/bar. There’s even a guide on building your own should you be up for the challenge. The body of the lap is formed by two thin rods folded in ...

Look at all of the nasty things going on in this apartment. Shitting, fucking, killing, stealing and even tripping are revealed when this magic apartment light is lit up. With the lights off, this house looks like nothing out of the ordinary, but flip the switch and you’re in for a big surprise. The things people do when I’m not ...

Some say that I have a thing for glowing, ambient lights. Very true. Hence why I’m kind of going ga-ga over LumiGram’s LumiTable. It’s a 63″ x 13″ and costs $195 but boy will it pay off when you throw a party. It’s made of LumiGram’s proprietary fiber optic material called Luminex (boy, such originality with product names!). The LumiTable ...

Mmmmm! Wouldn’t you just love a dollop on your cheesecake? These festive lights have a real Seussian look to them and can apparently inflate in under 10 seconds. At $240, they’re quite expensive. Considering said lights are available from a French company, you better be multilingual and dedicated to your home if you want to order a few of these. ...
