Solar Energy Curtain

Created by Sweden-based Interactive Studios subsidiary Re:form, this modern window dressing builds up a charge during the day and uses embedded materials to provide illumination at night. The curtain is made with combination of cotton, solar-collecting and light-emitting materials. During the day, the shade can be drawn to collect sunlight. During the evening, the collected energy is expressed as a glowing pattern on the inside of the shade. :: Re:form via Engadget via Inhabitat
