Take one Venetian window blind and a stack of electroluminescent sheets. Combine, and you now have a brand new window. What grabs us is the elegance of the controls: It works just like a real hole in the wall, using the blind's slats to control light levels.
Mongoose, a member of the design ideas site GNR8Pipeline, came up with the Bright Blind and will make them to order. But with a project this simple, we say build your own.
